Day 58 - Raider Run

Today we did the “Raider Run” around Sand Hill. Afterward, for breakfast, I had eggs – real eggs! – with Tabasco, bacon, oatmeal w/raisins, mini wheats, two glasses of powerade, waffles, blueberry yogurt, a biscuit, and some grapes.

After that, I did some detail work for “Family Day.” For lunch, there was king crab!, fried shrimp, fried catfish, coleslaw, cornbread, choco, 2 glasses of powerade, and cucumber-onion salad. I swear, if there’s anything I’ll miss about basic training, it will be the food.

In the afternoon, we traded in our uniforms (“DXing”) because they were all stained from the field and torn ragged in some places.

For dinner, it was Salisbury steak, coleslaw, powerade, corn, rice, cornbread, milk [but no choco]. In the evening, we did more drill and ceremony practice (D&C). I got letters from my grandfather with some money, Mom, and SY (2!). So, lots to reply to….
