This training is covering the basics of how to fire your weapon quickly and accurately, use your gear and reload your weapon quickly, and move towards the enemy without getting yourself shot up.
I came home early from training (well I'm in Georgia right now, should be back in a day or two) due to a broken foot. I'll be there, but I won't be doing much besides hanging out and/or helping organization.
Whoa you broke your foot? Damn man
Yeah, I was fast roping and landed on the rope on half my foot, putting the pressure of my whole body (in combat gear) down on the outer half of my left foot, breaking a metatarsal and fracturing two others. I tried to get up and walk it off, but no dice. I limped to the ambulance (FLA) and sat there staring at my gimpy leg for two hours until training was over then went to the hospital.
Basically, this is what happened to me, only I was fast roping out of a helicopter and about 75 feet up:
I was pissed. I missed SPIES (Special purpose insertion/extraction system) training:
