Today was another busy day of processing. We began with breakfast and went straight from there to the auditorium in Johnson Hall for our medical brief. After the brief and paperwork, it was off to medical for shots. I got four shots. One in the left arm in the bend above the elbow, one in the left shoulder, and two in the right shoulder. Only one (one of the ones in the right shoulder) really hurt. Most people got five shots because they got a penicillin shot also. After that they drew four vials of blood.
Next we went to the optometry so that they can order the army issue glasses. After that we went down and got our boots and hats so I now have my full uniform which is exciting!
That was pretty much it for the day, except for due to the barracks across from us, all Bravo barracks have to mount a 6 man fire watch tonight. That means 6 people each hour all night. Last night, the drill sergeant said five times to read the rules in the barracks. He walked in and saw all kinds of rule violations. They got stuck with 20 man fire watch all night, but the rest of us get to suffer for it tonight. I'm on the 3 am to 4 am shift which is okay since first formation is at 0415.
