BOLC B

Basic Officer Leadership Course II has been done away with. I was scheduled to take that January-February of this year.

Basic Officer Leadership Course III has been replaced with/renamed BOLC B.

I start BOLC B February 16th, and should finish sometime in June. By then, I'll have orders and we'll know where we're headed next.

Since we arrived at Ft. Sill in October, I've been on what is known as "casual duty," mostly serving as the Executive Officer of a Holdover Battery for the Warrior Transition Course. Prior service sometimes attend WTC instead of Basic Combat Training. When, in the course of WTC, these soldiers are hurt or when they prove to be unable to complete the physical fitness test, they come to us to heal and train.

I've been working with an outstanding group, dedicated to their work and to the soldiers they train, and though I'm glad to be getting on with my training, I'll miss being at Fox 1/79.

Peace through victory.

A Cool Site

Shel's dad, Vernon, introduced me to a website I really like. It's called FamilyLink. It's a genealogy site associated with Facebook. I've managed to put together a decent little family tree just from what Shel and I could remember off hand and what I could copy of Vernon's work.

I've always thought that genealogy was fun, but it can be a tremendous lot of work - not just to create, but to peruse and enjoy even. This is pretty simple and intuitive, so I'm sold.
