Hey guys and girls whats up? Finally home for the weekend. Fuck it sucks being on course. Up every morning at 4am to get ready for inspection then we have PT and usally go for a 5 - 10km run. Then for inspection theres always something wrong so our beds and dresses get thrown all over the place. Then for classes we finished all the radio's and now we r driving the biggest pieces of shit trucks canada owns...the LSVW...so far in 4 days me and my partner broke the transfer case, front and rear differential and today the drive shaft snapped in half. Driving in a convoy through the woods at night with no lights on was fun. I'll most likely be posted in Edmonton now because they own most of the tanks that canada has.

Anyways as florence has told most of u, apparently one of the spark plugs were loose and blew up...so ill have the car up and running on Wed. $350 for the tow to the shop, parts and labour. Other then that alot of the guys on my course like the car. I'll be home on x-mas leave on Dec 12 - Jan 5 so we have to get together and go drinking. Anyways im tired, cya's!

yea i thought it was a barring going through the supercharger and took out the rotars and then made its way into the engine, thats what it sounded like so when the women at the dealership told me it was just the spark plugs i was like "sweet!" and she was surprised i was happy about it
