05 NOV 05: Fights and Farewells

Well last night was the 2nd boxing smoker that was put on here at Camp Victory south. This time I did not do very much. I left it in the hands of SGT Rosado and SSG Marvin. About 10 days prior to the Fight SSG Marvin came by to see me and ask for some help. I gave him a list of things that needed to done and sure enough like the outstanding NCO he was he got it done. So come fight night there were some small hang ups but nothing major.

While were setting up the fights one of my female fighter SPC Jenn Farland took the oppurtunity to say goodbye. If you are wondering she is the red head is some of the boxing pics. She told me she was leaving in 45 minutes and she came to say goodbye to her coach. That was nice. Again it is always nice to see people go home but it is kind of bitter sweet. You can't be upset at them for leaving but yet your are sad because your world just got a little duller, a little worse.

Hope to get some pictures to put with this one.
