We continued with the HMMWV driving today, took it on some dirt roads in the desert. We got out a little early, but had to be back to do some night-time driving... with blackout lights. It was hard to see where we were supposed to go. The road was nothing more than a slightly lighter shade of black. All in all, it was pretty good.
We were supposed to have several hours between the day driving and the night driving. Then, as fate would have it, we had to go back to the Ft. to get even more stuff issued to us. There's some pretty cool things among what we got today, like a nicer helmet, some cold-weather boots, and other stuff.
This marks about the 1/3 done with training day, it won't be long now.
