We'll yesterday I got fitted for Body Armor. We will also get a helmet, but no uniform. A uniform would make us more of a target.
Today we did the admin. processing. Had to be there at 6:45 am. Finished by 9 am. Had to wait for the bus -- arrived at 10 am. Back to the pick up point by 10:30 am. Released till 4:45 pm. Such is my life hurry up and wait. More briefings tonight. Yesterday got briefings on what to do if we are held hostage. Certainly not something you normally would get as a preliminary job in-processing.
Have medical processing tomorrow. Already on my malaria pills. Makes me nauseated. Will take at night so I will be nausteated at night.
It is 103-108 degrees in Kuwait City now. From what I ubderstand I may live off post in an apartment. I am not looking forward to living in an 8 man tent. More to follow.
