Update From Texas

I thought it was time to update everyone on what's been going on with Brandon since he's been down in Texas. He is training at the Fort Hood military base where he says it is hot and cramped. Below is a picture of where the guys are living. There are 120 guys per building and things get a little cramped inside.

This is a picture of Brandon's Team, everyone is broken down into teams (which ends up being each truck). For his team Brandon is the driver (he was the driver on his last tour as well), Justin Pfeiffer is the navigator, and Kelly Queen as the gunner. Brandon was awfully surprised to find out that he had a girl on his team. One of the original members of their team was injured while they were in Guernsey training. They got the addition of Queen once they reached Texas. All Brandon could say is that he's having a hard time adjusting to having a girl on the team.

Here is Brandon all decked out in all of his gear, including his 80 pounds of body armor.

If anyone is interested in writing or sending packages I'll include Brandon's address at the bottom. We really want to thank everyone for your constant support and love!
