Doing all right here. Have to bust ass everyday about 16 hours. I'm trained to be a cook, and we work the longest and most grueling shifts - every day from 0300 to 1800, feeding about 200-500 Marines at any given meal depending on deployments.
I've got MCMAP (Marine Corps Martial Arts Program) grey belt training and continuous rifle, NBC (nuclear, biological, and chemical), and combat training, which should be fun. I'm starting to miss the grunt work and 20k humps.
I'll probably be here in garrison a couple more months so I might have one or two weekends off to explore the island or possibly even mainland Japan if I get cleared to take some leave. Sometime in this coming summer or fall though I'll be going to Iraq or on ship in the vicinity - Marines need hot chow there too. :shuriken:
