Viper

Recently i returned from the state of California where i spent a little over a month on the Marine Corps Base at Twenty-Nine Palms. It was a new experience for me which to a former Marine lets them know that i'm a "Boot" which is Marine Corps lingo for new guy who is inexperienced. From what i've heard from the higher up's in my company the part of 29 where we were, Camp Wilson has changed alot from when they were first there. There were alot of things that made life not too miserable for instance a small mcx, food stands and even a barber shop so we didn't have to bic our heads every time our hair got too long. So far 29 sounds kinda boring, don't let that fool you it actually is. Well i don't want to make it sound all that bad there were good things about cali, the training had it's ups and downs an up for me was i got to shoot an AT4 which is a 84mm rocket launcher which was a blast literally. We did alot more training than just that but i'm tired and don't feel like writing it all tonight. But as i go along to my deployment this page will be full of stories i hear and witness along with pictures that go along with. This picture is a great example of how my time was spent in California
