Sorry that I am a day late, but I come with a lot of good news.
First off, We have two newly promoted Marines on our Team. Sgt. Vee and LCpl. Oliveras were promoted on 1 April 08 at the palace on Blue Diamond. Both of these Marines have been doing a great job during this deployment and are very deserving of this promotion.
I guess we decided that the Promotion was a good way to top off our time on Blue Diamond, so we packed up all of our stuff (and some that wasn't) and made the move to Camp Ramadi. We looked like the Beverly Hillbillies, but made it here with out incident. Now we have Showers, Restrooms that are adult sized, and a chow hall that serves about anything you could want. Of course, the Showers ran out of water the first day, but that shouldn't happen very often.
We are trying to get settled in, but it is taking a few days. Cpl. Mia has found his match in a Satellite dish that will give us internet. He thought it would be done the first day we were here, now three days later we are still waiting. He's trying awfully hard though. Doc has his FMF pin Test soon so we haven't seen him too much, because he's learning everything there is to know about the Marines.
As Always, continue your support of the team and hopefully, I'll be able to get this in on time next week.
