Full Metal Jacket

This morning the family headed out to the Marine Corp Recruit Depot as I was participating in the Boot Camp Challenge with some co-workers. Two teams from work had been formed with the losing team buying the winners some lunch. The Babe had a great time hanging out in the grass and playing with her friend Nia. Meanwhile, I was running through a 3-mile obstacle course with Drill Instructors yelling words of "encouragement" along the way.

Izzy says "Drop and give me 50!"
