Imagine six days out there in the jungle with camouflage cream on you face 24 hours a day, eating combat rations and being ill throughout. I went in coughing and since the jungle wasn’t the best place for recovery, I came out with more cough and a blocked nose of mucus/phlegm. For those who have not been through the camp, I would advise you to take care of yourself and try NOT to fall sick during the period of time. You will cough in the middle of the night and this makes it hard to even sleep. Spice it up with some night “events”, I ended up being so tired that I could fall asleep in the middle of cleaning up my M16.

But I survived!

On a side note, I purchased what seems to be my first novel in a long time: Kite Runner. It’s worth a read if anyone needs any reading material.
