Here's a picture of one of the platoon meetings:
And here are some pics of their living conditions right now. I'm editing here to add that they're staying in a FOB (forward operating base) for training, but when they're over there, his unit will be in a COB (combat operating base?) so their living situation won't be as nice and luxurious as this:
He said he should be able to send some more pics, so I'll post them as I get them.

Wow...I can't imagine living like that for very long!
And we think we are "roughing it" when we stay at Lake Yale! :)
When dad looked at it, all he could say was how good they had it in the Air Force!

Love ya,
Mom & Dad
Well, you know the Air Force IS the most SPOILED branch ;-)
