If It Ain't Rainin', We Ain't Trainin'

Recently, Joe took is Troop out to the field for some training. While he was out there he sent a couple pictures to me and I also downloaded some pictures that his 1SG posted on the Troop's Facebook page. In good Army form, it rained the whole time they were out there except the very first day. I felt sorry for Joe and his troop, but he did point out that the rain means they are that much more prepared for fighting in good or bad conditions. 

The first two pictures are from when it was still dry out there. 

The rain began the next day and didn't stop. 

A little rain doesn't phase them.

I wish I could give Joe some time off to relax and recover before the next big thing, but he's already off and running...and doing an amazing job!
