In the end our team 1 won most motivated team, and overall 299th won 1st place in the M-16 simulation, 1st place in the litter carry, 2nd place in paintball, 3rd place in the grenade launch and 1st place overall. HOOAH!! Besides receiving our paper awards, everyone also received a personal Dagger Combat Spouse Italian charm.

Practicing my salute

I was out after the sniper got me in the eye:)

Going around the corner during the litter relay.

Doing the back crawl during the obstacle course.

Playing some paintball.

Paintball instructions.

Arriving at the grenade launch station, oh yeah, I was also a road guard throughout the day.





We were cheering on Siri here while she was throwing one of her grenades.



Before the litter carry, while we were all still happy. That was the hardest obstacle.



Preparing to run our casualty to safety.

GOOO Lifeline!!

We did great saluting.


Here we are getting instructions for the grenade throws.

I should have been ducking for cover, but I had to watch and see where my grenade landed.

Attention!!

Beginning of obstacle course, posing with our M-16's.

This was our M-16 simulation class.

What a hard day!!

This was the hardest and funnest day I ever had in the Army. We, many friends and myself, participated in the Spouses Challange on April 25th, where we participated in many challenges. Some were very difficult, while others were relatively easy and fun.
This picture is from our Drill and Ceremony task. Pictured from left to right:Allison, Theresa, Wnedy, Siri, Kim, Joanne, and Lori.

This is the morning we started. You can see how many of us look motivated and happy, while others are trying to keep our best "Army Face". We were divided into 2 teams and competed in all the tasks at different times. The picture above is the team I was in-team 1

This is part of the obstacle course that we did for "fun". It wasn't timed and didn't count for points for the team. That's me going over in BDU's, with my gun in my arms.

We had to march throughout the day. Joanne, front right, sang cadence for us all day, she was great.

End of the day chow

Spidey 3

We went and watched Spiderman 3 today in the German theatre with some friends. 9 of us total. The kids really liked the movie and I thought it was pretty good also.
