Zero Weeks

The term "Zero Week" comes from Air Force Basic Military Training at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas ... when I went through in 1996 there was two or three days of administrative things that took place before they counted the six full weeks of basic training. I consider my time here at Fort Dix and the subsequent travel time to Manas Transit Center zero weeks. I just want to hurry up and get there so I can count down the time to getting home. It was this time last year that JG was packing for his deployment. We've only had five months together between him coming back at the end of December and my leaving the first week of June. I hope this is not the beginning of a trend.
