It is me just posting of the events that occurred during the day. I'm very happy to see that mudders enjoy the posts and further more I hope I can give you all a small insight in my small part of these events in our lives.

Today I had to go to the Desert Wolves (Border Patrol) border fort to hunt down some missing gear we had ordered for the IPs. Then had to race back to meet the general that was coming in to do what generals do when they come to small places like ours. We wasted a good bit of our time standing by to possibly take the general on patrol out in town. The end result for me was I stood around in all my gear for nothing then had to play catch up on the rest of my duties. Oh, well, such is life.
So this evening we went to the IP station gave a few quick classes, did a personnel and weapons inspection and took 7 IPs on patrol. I got to tell you I get more and more impressed by their abilities every time we take them with us on patrol. Remember, these are the young ones (18-30 y/o)who are looking up to us. I see good things coming out of them. I'm holding on to my opinions of the older males for now.

Randy,
Are the Fords diesels, 6.0 or 7.3 if so?
