Hey
I don't really have time to write much today. We spent almost all day at the
Air Force base with Joe Piccoli, a PJ. PJs are the air forces special forces.
They are basically combat medics that get dropped in to save navy seals and
stuff like that. Very very legit. We got to see the cages, which I've always
heard about but never seen. That's where they store all of their equipment.
Each pj gets his own cage, and he maintains all of his own gear. It was all
very cool. Stuff like that has always interested me, and being there in it all
made me think, "would this be something I would want to do?" Oh, for
those who don't know what PJs are at all, there are about 5000 SEALs but only
about 400 PJs. Very elite.
We've
had kind of a slow disappointing week this week, but I can't complain at all
because I know for a fact that there are a lot harder missions than this one!
Here I have a very slim chance of getting run over by someone on a motorcycle.
When I hear stories like that it just makes me want to work harder because I
have it so easy here in the states. I also have unlimited respect for
missionaries serving in dangerous places, and places that it's difficult just
to get enough food. Keep them in your prayers!
I
promise more pictures next week, but here's some silly selfies looking back at
the mainland states.
Yes
it was very cold. And windy.
