So early Sunday morning I got back from Ft. Jackson. I was lucky enough to see my older sister graduate from Basic Training from Ft. Jackson, S.C. So me and my brother in-law took off last week on a Monday afternoon. First we went to my little sisters house down in Oak Groove, KY. Which took a little bit of time, but all and all went well. So Monday night we get to my little sisters house and I’m so excited cause I have not seen my nieces for like a year and what not. We stayed there for like 2 days then took off on Wednesday around 2200(that’s 10pm civilian time) and mind you guys it is a eight to nine hour drive to Columbia, S.C. from Oak Groove, KY.

So we end up arriving to Columbia S.C. around 0900 and needless to say we are all tired as hell. So by 1000 we have to be on Ft. Jackson for Family Day. After looking around the Battalion for a while we fainaly locate my sisters company.

Seeing my sister for the first time was absolutely mind blowing. She had manage to loose 25-30 pounds in Basic Training. She looked so good and for the first time a saw my older sister proud of herself, she had a smile ear to ear. She could not stop smiling, and let me be the first to tell you all I am very proud of my older sister. She accomplished what 23 other people couldn’t do in her platoon, she fucking completed Basic Training. She didn’t quit, she didn’t say “Drill Sergeant I wanna Go Home.” She didn’t fail her P.T test, and she didn’t let all the younger soldiers get to her because of her age. Goddamnit she is a Trooper. So big ups to older sister. Which is now going to A.I.T where she will excell because she is to damn smart.

Yet again I am proud of my older sister who just graduated from Basic Training, and now my older sister has my six if you all know what that means. SGT Skully out………
