I left Thursday night and met Ping, Jun, and Steevo in Waxhaw, we then went to Statesville and met everybody else. Once we were loaded up and Percy was in the jeep with me, Big Mike, and Colin, I knew I was in for something different. Once we got there and all set up, I took a nap, and waited for supper.
Friday night game was a fast paced cluster, but a lot of fun. It was Fri. night that I seen a need for a PTW with some trigger work. That guy was pissing bbs on semi and had a tracer unit. It was cool to see, but painful to feel. I lasted bout 2 hrs. Old age and the fact that 1.5hr nap after being up 32 hrs just wasn't enough. So I left it to the younger ones and crashed, without seeing much more than a 1/4 of the prison.
I spent Sat doing classes (that were free) and learned some very good stuff. Of course I went shopping to.
Bout 6pm I started making sure I was ready by eating a very good meal. Thanks Gam!
The Sat night game started with a safety briefing, that seemed to last forever, but was needed. Bad thing is that, like most games, people did not listen. It was SLOW going at first and we questioned whether it was worth the trip. Once the game started, it stopped. Very aggravating..
We were tasked with breaching the prison, thru one door only. A whole platoon trying to go thru one door was very frustrating. There was a lot people that would stop in the door. Well they got pushed out the way. I am very proud that our squad did not stop. We kept pushing always. We did this 3 times. The third time, we had several that survived. We all stood along the hall while we were being healed. After we got healed, we just turned toward the wall so we could turn out our lights. It was a great move on 82d's part. Once in, we cleared the south cell block. It was done with teamwork.
After this, it was more of the same style missions. There was the kitchen, and the best part of all, the staircase. That by far was the most fun I have ever had. Even tho I got shot up a lot, and have the blood blister to prove it, it was awesome.
All in all, I had a great time and would go back.
