SO, in short....Aaron is leaving his unit (1/5) in October to become a combat instructor at the School of Infantry. Guys who just got out of boot camp go straight there to learn the technical side of things, if you will. And Aaron will be one of their instructors. Anyway, his current unit (1/5), is leaving for afghanistan early 2011. AARON IS NOT GOING. And in August, they are going up to a place where they can train in the kind of weather they will be in when they go to afghanistan. Since Aaron is not deploying with them, one would assume that there is no reason to waste taxpayers money to send him up there for the month. BUT since the marine corps is backwards in everything they do, they are sending him. And he will miss our wedding anniversary...again.
Well it does come with the territory. So I understand. I just needed to vent!
Ok I'm done.
