Groundhog Day

As you can see from the counter on the right side, we've been here for just over two months and have finally broken 300 days to go.
One of my favorite phrases around here is "everyday is Groundhog Day." If you remember the movie, Bill Murray just keeps living through the same day the same way over and over again. Here it's pretty much the same thing every day and the days tend to run together. Our section has a rotation going so that we space out our days off over the course of the week, instead of having saturday or sunday understaffed. So, one day is pretty much the same as the next.

Aren't there any training facilities around there, so that your troops don't get too bored with the same day playing over and over? I have heard that some people stationed in Kuwait, sometimes feel not so much a part of the "mission". Might help to keep them engaged. Just a thought from someone who cares.

We try to break up the monotony with ranges, CLS training, and new/interesting IT projects to tackle. You're right, it's important to keep soldiers from being bored and I'm doing my best to acheive that.
