Last week was 24 hour operations. I started the week off by being flu like sick. It was a rough first day. Luckily my platoon didn't do that many missions on the first day. We had several mission everyday. The best was when we received a mission and had to practice convoy operations with react to contact, and practiced in the 40 mph wind. The PL was mad at us when we were joking around and making light of our miserable situation.
At some point during our missions on Wednesday, I slightly sprained my ankle. As I was getting off the truck on a later mission, I realized that my ankle was really sore.
The last day was culminated by a 10 mile ruck march. You can never experience a field exercise without ending it with a ruck, it wouldn't be the Army then! Rucks really tearing up my feet. I had a major blister on my right heal. Thank goodness for a sterile needle and a clean tissue for drainage. No problems since!
