Day 5- the heat is on ;)

Day 5 is Monday and you will begin your introduction to the field at this point.  They will bus you out there (on a duece and a half with no shocks)  for part of the day and the rest of the day you will spend at Fort Sam Houston getting a 4 hour death by power point lecture from the burn czars at Bamsey.  Interesting stuff, but difficult to follow b/c you will be so freaking tired.  After the burn lecture you will bused back to Camp Bullis as you pass restaurant after restaurant on hwy 1604 only to come back to the hutments and eat more MRE's.  They tell you that you cannot do anything in the evening until the "squad leaders" have their meeting (generally around 1830-1900), but by the end of the course people were breaking this rule left and right and showering before officially allowed.  Oh and btw, I hope you are not shy, because the showers are totally open and in a bay and the toilets are not only right NEXT to each other but also ACROSS from each other so you can watch you friends pee and poop (if you are so lucky to poop- MRE's make you seriously constipated).
