Mid-September : The Beginning

I felt that I'd begin this blog as a way to keep track of my personal journey as well as the journey of the members of the 485th Engineer Company as we begin our final year of training before entering ready/deployable status with the United States Army Reserve.

I've been with the company for 9 months now, and have participated in every exercise the unit has undergone during that time. I may touch on some of the more memorable aspects of our training in the past, but primarily this blog will be to better explain, for myself and for the readers, the feelings, training, and preparations that I undergo before being deployed.
