[Shootist]

My job (not military) involves a shit ton of hiking through the jungle and sweating my ass off, plus speaking multiple foreign languages, so I'm hoping I'm covered on that end (although I do get out for a heavier 5-10 mile ruck once a week, and I'm honing my language skills as much as possible).

Otherwise, I PT every day with a TRX Suspension System and whatever heavy rocks and ropes I can find laying around the FOB out here, usually 1hr+ high intensity sessions, plus runs 3 times a week. I supplement with a daily whey protein shake since we usually only have local food out here, and even then I lose weight every time I stay out in the bush more than 3 months at a go.

I'm getting pretty practiced on the AK-47 system (or at least the Chicoms) and am reasonably familiar with the HK-G3, but plan to spend some serious time at the range with more modern ware when I get back stateside and enlist.

I definitely need to start practicing my LandNav skills, as I rely heavily on GPS out here and haven't really had to break out the compass yet.
