I intended to have this blog up and running before now, but sheesh it's been crazy! :-)
My adventure started in Ft. Worth, TX and the deployment center for the company I went to work for. Amazingly enough, the deployment center is located in the Mariott at Champion's Circle. Not the nicest Mariott I've ever stayed in, but pretty nice none the less. It was very convenient having everything at the hotel, rather than having to shuttle all over Ft. Worth.
The first four days were filled with medical testing - 8 shots (yes, 8), blood work, EKG, etc. We received some other training about the project that we are working on and the mission over here. We also received IED (improvised explosive device) and combat first aid.
After all of that, there was alot of waiting. All total, I was in Ft. Worth for 11 days. I met some very nice people during the process, which made things so much easier.
The first weekend I was there was race week at Texas Motor Speedway. A few of us went over to the track after the race one day and walked around.
