A meloncollie day today. I was promoted to Battalion S3 which is quite exciting. My boss was promoted which opened the position I am in now. Usually the S3 position is reserved for a Major or Colonel so as a Lieutenant I have huge shoes to fill. I am honored, excited, and aphrensive at the same time. I can't speak specifically to what I do on a day to day basis but I ensure that the hospital operation runs smoothly. And attend lots of meetings. Our counterparts in the unit that is leaving have been quite helpful in teaching us what we need to know. I have a years worth of their accumulated knowledge to learn in 10 days. Good Luck to me. My blog entries will thin a bit until I am able to get a grasp on my job but I will update as much as possible. Additionally our communication will be limited at times. When a US Service Member passes away the base will sever all communications until the family of that service member is notified. It is the right thing to do since word travels fast via telephone an Internet. It does however mean that I may be without a phone or Internet for several days at a time. I pray this is not the case too often but it has been a reality several times since my arrival.
