Moleskin:  BC seemed to be a crowd pleaser.  I want to call out two incidents of HIM.  First, at the end of the playground fun we were pretty smoked.  The Guide On buddies had the task to carry the flag.  Without prompting when the PAX Buddies behind them in formation noticed a struggle they took the Flag.  Second, when a PAX struggled with the AO return run his Battle Buddy fell out of formation and accompanied him back to the AO.  Men, that is what we are building.  IT IS NOT ABOUT YOU!

23 of Summerville’s finest posted for a Welcome Party to celebrate the return of Boot Camp.  The strongest medicine is the DRP.  Doing hard things with good men is an experience that is somewhat addictive.  F3 is more a lifestyle than a social group.  If it didn’t mean something more than PT, why would men get out of rack and post?  It is good to be back.

Conditions: 67 degrees, clear skies
