The infamous countdown to I-Day

<p>i still have to get a set of shoulder boards and new rank</p>

<p>Oh and i saw this guy wearing the assault course hat… gave me chills haha</p>

<p>oooh. and the generator/lights are up in the quad for your morning PT :slight_smile: i too saw your nametags. got to go exchange my rank soon, just dropped off one of my a-jackets to get my new squad patch on. everything’s changin around here… lots of excitement</p>

<p>Welcome to the beginning of 3 dig summer. It’s a blast! Sadly, I’m in my last one. Not so sadly my next one will have 60 days of leave. :slight_smile: I remember those days, getting rank finally, etc. When I head back for ring dance on Thursday I have to pick up my summer firstie rank. Strange with the new rank system, C/LtCol squad comm is now 3 thick bars with one star. lol. Feels so good. I can’t wait for my ring! Only 3 days now!!!</p>

<p>Three bars and a star; what’s Wing Honor then? Oh wait, they invented a new symbol for that, didn’t they? Polaris, I believe?</p>

<p>yeah, honor has Polaris, and all commanders have a star.</p>

<p>I’ve already switched my BDU rank, which I wore for the first time today at summer research down here in Eglin. Almost time to come back for the big dance though! I can’t wait!</p>

<p>anyone else get woken up this mornin at 4:30am? they were going through the pt card as loud as they could. I had to check the date on my watch to be sure beast hadn’t started yet. Ugh.</p>

<p>Yeah, some of the AMTs weren’t happy with the BCT Cadre’s performance at PT yesterday, so we had to be rediculously hooah today…</p>

<p>yep, got woken up along with almost all my squad. lol</p>

<p>darn cadre and AMTs!</p>

<p>oh how i will miss sijan next year.</p>

<p>i woke up at 0730 to go for a run before going to work. yay for optional PT wednesdays!</p>

<p>hehe, We have PT Mondays and Fridays. It was soccer on Monday. :slight_smile: And us cadets are in great shape by comparison. Was a blast! :)</p>

<p>Back to the regularly schedule thread… 35 days!</p>

<p>5 weeks to the fly out day!</p>

<p>One month from today. Or I guess… one month and a day.</p>

<p>well, a month can be either 30, 31, or 28, maybe even 29 days… so a month is a fairly ambiguous term. </p>

<p>One month by means of the same numbered day in June, or 31 days!!!</p>

<p>I literally had to read that post 20 times to figure out wht exactly it meant…</p>

<p>Besides, abort the countdown and “live ze life”!!!</p>

<p>speaking of countdowns… 365 hornet and ramius ;)</p>

<p>w00t w00t! :)</p>

<p>Hooray for everyone! assault course hats, pt…wow…at least I’ll be PARTIALLY ready for PT…i think. :)</p>

<p>meanwhile…</p>

<p>there are 1462 days until 2013 graduates. just showed up on the cadet homepage today :)</p>
