Update on Buddy!

Okay everybody....
It is hot... It got up to 143 the other day while they were out on the range shooting. It is completely flat and sandy- the sky is not even blue.
He likes some of the training they are doing. They had to do a simulation of a hummer that had been rolled over and they had to practice getting out. They are feeding them well, the first night they had steak and crab. There is a Taco Bell on the base that is stationed at temporarily. He is in Kuwait as of right now and will possibly be there for another week or so? Internet is slow, phone has an hour+ wait. They are allotted a 20 min phone call a day. They are complete with their training and are awaiting orders to go to their next FOB(Forward Operating Base)- i don't know if that is the right words for the acronym but I think I heard it somewhere. That is all I have so far.
I will post the address of the FOB when I get it from the Sergent's wife. They should be all settled in about a month.
Keep him in your prayers and send him lots of LOVE-
