Past the Half-Way Mark

We are now more than halfway done with the training here at Ft Dix.  This week is comprised primarily of classroom training in three different tracks.  The track I'm in is for a system called Blue Force Tracker.  The details are too boring to go into but not as boring as the actual classroom instruction.  The instructors are teaching to the lowest common denominator for a typical Army class.  Not digging on the Army (not much anyway) but does a group of 26 Air Force Intel analysts really need a 20-minute block of instruction on how to change the mouse scroll settings?  Not joking...it's really that basic.  Hopefully today will be better as we start using the tools within the system.  The only thing that kept me awake yesterday was watching other people fight to stay awake. 

  Off to class I go...with a BIG cup of coffee.
