Weapons School...Just Around The Corner

In a little over two weeks, I'll hit the road for the 2,225 mile long drive west to Nellis AFB in Las Vegas for my 6 months of Weapons School. All of the spin-up flights, time studying, and working on briefing guides has paid off and I feel ready for the task ahead. Of course, I'm anxious about the tough days to come, but I know God is in control and His plan is already laid out. Jeremiah 29:11 says, "For I konw the plans that I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope."

The course will be tough, but not seeing Lana and Liam much during this time will be even more difficult. The course is so busy that I will have little time to spend with them, which is why they'll be spending most of their time in Munich, and visit me towards the end of my time out there.


I'm not sure if I mentioned this previously, but I know four of the 10 pilots in my class since we were stationed together during my tour at Aviano Air Base, Italy. This will help along the way as we work together as a class to make it through. I also don't anticipate updating the blog much during the course, so we'll see how that goes.

Until the next time...
