AIT at Fort Sam Houston, TX

Hey Everyone. I am at Fort Sam Houston just outside San Antonio, TX. Learning to be a 68W, a Combat Medic. The first 6 weeks is becoming a registered EMT. And I am loving the classes. Its gone by fast so far. To Top it off I have been named as Platoon Guide, PG. We have a company of about 400 solders and that is broken into platoons of about 40 in each. I am in charge of one and give out commands keep them informed of what Sargent wants etc. Basically in mission terms I am the zone leader. It has been a good experience for me.
Sadly we do live in the oldest barracks in the United States Army, and they still expect it too look like they are new. Otherwise its a lot of information really fast. But I have an 88% GPA and am keeping up for now. I don't want to stay any longer than the 16 weeks I have too. I hope everyone is doing well.
