Greetings from Kuwait!
Just a quick update (i'll write more later when I have more time)....i arrived last week safely, went through a few days of training (Close Quarters Marksmanship, Convoy Training, M16 Range etc) and now am in the process of learning my job (which is where I'm at right now). I am working the night shift (9pm-9am) and for those of you who are wondering, the time differences are as follows (My timezone is ahead of your timezone by the listed hours):
East Coast: 7 hours
Midwest: 8 hours
West Coast: 10 hours
To keep it simple, most of you are waking up when I am going to bed. As for the weather here, its a little warm....but I'm pretty much adjusted to it. During the night it tapers off to a cool 93 degrees as compared to the 123 degrees during the day. There are NO CLOUDS in the sky at all so the only relief from the sun is shade but that really doesnt do much except drop the temp maybe 10 degrees.
As for my living conditions, its not bad, I will add pictures later along with a more details about my first week out here. Things are going well out here, I'm really looking forward to working here for the next year....hard to imagine that a week has already gone by!! 51 more to go!!!! Anyways, just wanted to let you all know that I got here safe.
