Jr instructor camp

Went and helped last night with Jr instructor camp. That was a whole lot of kids. My hats off to those who spent the night there at North Charlotte while I enjoyed my nice comfy bed. I remember a day when I could sleep just about anywhere I needed to. Now, I'm all about the temperature is set just right, having the right kind of pillow, my nice temperpedic mattress, and so on. I can really appreciate sleep at my age. Not an old age, but I don't power nap crammed in the back of a hot C-130 strapped into a parachute and ruck gear. Man, I was able to lay my head down and sleep in any position in those days. I still remember my buddy jammed up next to me in one of those planes doing a low level in Thailand, and all of a sudden he started vomiting. That's when the chain reaction started and next thing you know, we are all covered in vomit with 10 minutes left before we jumped. Good times! Any way, great job Jr Instructors! We had two there from our Harrisburg location as well. Moving forward with a vengeance.
