First Two Weeks of Training

This Thursday I finished first two weeks of my training and came back to home for a short holiday (less than two days).  I should leave home in 2-3 hours and want to give some updates about first two weeks.

Generally things were different from what I had anticipated about military service training.  Things got hard for me when I arrived to camp for first time and my right foot got injured and a very big sore on my right heel made me down (although I had to run all day long).  Anyone with a short experience in military training knows what I say.  On the other hand first days are harder than others and we suffered from many things that I factor them for now.

Our camp is in a mountain and we should climb for 4-5 Kilometers to reach to main camp.  Running in mountain is our main job everyday to move to other places in camp and this is the most annoying thing in our training.  Weather is so cold and almost all guys (including myself) got cold.  We should pass training all day long and don't have anytime to rest except 6-7 hours to sleep at nights.  Day after day I could adapt myself with their conditions and now things are better.  There are many details to write about these first two weeks but unfortunately I don't have enough time to write about them for now.

I (and others) guess that they'll give us a longer holiday from next week for our new year eve so I should be back in 7-8 days to write more about my experiments.  My right heel is better than first days but I have to care about it anyway.

I could find something about my military rank: if I pass my training successfully then I'll become a Second Lieutenant.

Stay tuned, I'll be back very soon to write more about these dark days!

Keyvan, I'm very glad to hear you made it through the first couple of weeks. Sounds like the hardest part may have been over. I'm looking forward to hearing more about your experience when you come home for Norouz. My thoughts and wishes are with you. Take care.
