Day 3

Got up around 5:45 am went over to the dinning hall. Caught bus to the Soldier Readiness Program location. I didn’t have my dental file and had to start a new one. This separated me from my team. There were 4 of us from Kentucky that had to do dental first. That was good because that got us by the big long lines and we knocked out several stations quick like blood work, eye screening, mental health, had to go get a panoramic done for our teeth. When we got back to the main building the lines that had been 1 to 2 hours standing in them were empty. Except the line to the medical screening with a medical doctor. That line was 3hours long. They only had 3 or 4 doctors which was a joke. They should have had more doctors. The doctor wrote my prescriptions and they ordered me 180 day supply and a 90 day supply of Nexium and Allegra D. Which should be free of cost? From there we went to the other SRP location and just got in before they shut down and it only took us 30 minutes to get through legal, chaplain, Life insurance, pay and a few others. Now we are supposed to have Friday off because we finished. Getting ready to go visit PX to see what kind of stuff they have up there.
LTC Belt got back from the brief and gave us and update of things to come. Florida which is the higher headquarters had discussed wanting to pull several people out of our team to form another team under a LTC that is in their task force. WE are not happy about this.
