blah (tired).. finally back from my long weekend from Fort Devens Massachusetts. Started friday morning till sunday evening.

Let's see I got to my unit around 0800, and from there i was told to go grab my stuff because i was going early to shoot and qualify with the M240B

Got there around 12 from Concord, NH. From there went staright to my range and zero'd and qualified with my gas mask on with the M240B.

Now.. during this time i'm not drinking anyyy water... (because i'm a dumbass) so by the time i get up to go try to qualify i was feeling really nauseous, dizzy etc.. dehydrated basically. so they took me to some shade and stuck an IV in me and i had to sit out for the rest of the day woo for me being a dumbass. I only got to try to qualify once. T_T

The following morning after getting back to the Nashua Armory at 2330 and waking up at 0500 ate breakfast got back to the range around 0800 and eventually qualified after 3 tries geting 8/12 targets at a distance of 400 to 800 meter targets. + Show Spoiler +

pew pew


From there I waited around ate lunch finally got to the M4 Zero range. Drinking lots of water . Zero'd and qualified with my M4 with the gas mask on, with a red dot sight.

more pew pew


Then went straight to the qualifying range and qualified with the M4 hitting 26/40 (with no glasses on.. i can't see far distance).

Then took a nap waited for night to fall, because now its fun time. Qualifying again with the M4s with Night vision on :D. Needless to say it was fun and i hit 13/15 targets woo.

Got done around 2330, got back to the nasuha armory around 0030 T_T to wake up at 0500 again. Left to go back to concord for 0700 and got back around 0800. Cleaned weapons including the M240B till 1600.. was a tedious day. Eventually got out and went home.

Overall 8/10 weekend.

Wow, that looks really intense. I'm pretty ignorant in terms of what army training consists of, and this sounds really intense. I always pictured everything to be more theoretical, but seeing the pics of guns just lined up and and the shells and everything is like, real eye opener. Anyway, congrats on passing all your qualifications!

So I assume you didn't get Expert or Sharpshooter on anything Or is that not relevant for the weapons you were qualifying for?

No i didn't applies to the M4 regular qualify t.t only 26/40 would need 30 something for sharpshooter i think

No we all learn Martial arts on our own and its up to us whether or not if we want to take school/classes on improving ourselves, its Mixed Martial Arts though

I'm currently a lvl 1 MMA fighter theres 4 lvls

You're only a dumbass if you make the same mistake and don't drink enough water next time imo.

Im pretty sure Ma Duce = Cal 50.

edit: My brother is in the Marines, still a recruit and doing PT. Has a couple of months before he heads out to boot camp. Of course you're in the Army, competition. :D
