*Part 5* Who in the World is Nikolai Abraham Jackson?

AIT right Britani?

You had quite the different experience at the old 232 didn’t you? Doubt you were Tusker Blood. Probably too weak from your 9 week vacation at Fort Relaxing Jackson while I was eating shit and dirt and listening to the loudest artillery that side of the Mississippi ;p

Okay, I’m fine,…your fucking rotten corpse cum zombie pets are shriveling my frontal cortex. Sex. Sexy Lexi. Oh the things I did to that dog pale in comparison to your indifference when I told you she died.

For God’s sake even Gillian Jacobs met up with her douchebag ex to have a fucking moment.

And I do find you flirting with Matt while married to Brendan, while interviewing Black guys for Trump on TikTok,…kinda weird.

So what’s up with those yoga pants? You fuck in them? Before? After? Now? LoL

Sorry my little Russian stump went limp in you and you jellyfished pumped me out of you and laughed but,…we were still dealing with the felony.

I drove away from that motel listening to dire straights “money for nothing, chicks for free”…

You were married right? Idk

Back and forth, back and forth, and Jim Carey, and Will Smith,…

Oh ya the Silver Surfer Vaporizer!!!

Give it back lol

But that thing is so weird, I did chacruna and god knows what out of it the first time I got it, tubes been changed a couple times I’m sure…

Conservative views have uhh,..occupied me.

So,…AIT is over and I’m going to Airborne School, I probably flew,…I flew today. I might have been on a bus though,…getting so hard to remember…

That’s when I found out my grandma died, on the bus right outside of Fort Benning now known as…Fort Moore.

Just worried for my mom, like always. My grandma was a Russian grandma, you know, cold, fucked up from Hitler still, grandpa got his leg blown off while conscripted IN the Nazi army. Kills a bunch of nazis and loses his leg,…

I know, and I bitch because I didn’t deploy with a battalion that allowed cell phones.

Anyway, just different I guess.

You can’t shove one time period down another time periods timeline, zeitgeist, or sub-conscious, I mean you can, but it just seems irreverent.

Or one life against another’s.

Airborne school was dope. If AIT is like college (bachelors) , then Airborne and I would assume everything from Special Forces, to SEAR School, to Air Assault school is like a Masters,…and of course deploying,…would be a PhD.

So. Much. Water.

So much fucking heat omg

If you puke you’re out, if you want to be out, you’re out, if you fart, you’re out.

Red Berets. Tan Berets. So many fucking berets!

Yes, had to down a full canteen when you woke up, before Physical Training, during PT, another whole one after PT,..

And they would have you hold the canteen upside down to show you drank it all.

Black flagging at fucking 5 in the morning,…please kill me.

I got addicted to NyQuil because I was so tired I couldn’t sleep.

My uniform would be soaked from the inner shirt to the edges of the ACU pattered fatigue.

Then another canteen of water before and after chow…

One guy puked from the water and chinups alone.

10 chinups before and after chow,…lol

Walking my laundry a mile up an incline dirt path to do laundry…

All hopeful and waiting for the next hardest part RIP.

And the zip line thing, I’m like, “after high ropes course at BFCCC Black Forest Camp & Counseling Center,…this ain’t shit!”

And the 250 foot tower, that was wild, hurt a lot, lol even at 180lbs I still hit the ground so hard Sgt. Airborne thought I blew my boot out but it was already torn from marching me around.

Needless to say the week of PLF, Parachute Landing Fall preparedness had not prepared me.

Then, yes, the worst day of my life, thanks for asking…

The day I got kicked out of Airborne school and my dreams died,

Airborne school consists of 3 weeks with weekends off, not that hard right?

On one of my weekends I went into Columbus and bought soft core porn DVD’s. That’s how easy it is lol

Anyway, first week is ground week, then Tower week,…then jump week!!!

It’s Friday of tower week and the troop is getting giddy for the weekend and they are going to dismiss us soon,…

Let’s say like 4:30PM right?

So they are doing paperwork, finishing things up, the Sgt. Airborne comes in and out to our formation every few minutes,…just like waiting, like you do in the military,…

And, everyone would start to get chatty and bubbly when we thought no one was there, then a Sgt. Airborne would tell us to shut up,…then we would…then 5 minutes later there would be a lull and people would start talking again.

Like any classroom you’ve ever been in.

So…

One of the murmurs,…I must’ve been talking,…and Sgt. Airborne didn’t single me out…

…it was this Marine Colonel.

See, you train with all branches in specialty schools, or Airborne anyway, and, he was a marine, had that marine attitude.

And yea, he was right, but everyone was talking, it wasn’t just me.

They start smoking me for being irreverent, and I’m in such good shape I’m talking shit back to them as I’m doing push-ups as fast as I can.

Cut to,…me crying in Sgt Airborne’s office begging for him to keep me in airborne school.

Nope.

Sent to a fuck up/drop out company in the then Fort Benning.

I ate a lot of HoneyBuns out of a vending machine, I was broken. Airborne school and RIP were all I knew and they had been ripped from my hands.

I pulled 24 hour shifts guarding empty buildings. Got off so tired I didn’t feel like sleeping.

Reprimanded to bum fuck Fort Polk 3 weeks before deployment, like just kill me.

…I remember being in my tiny ass barrack room in fort Polk and I took a call on my flip phone from my girlfriend at the time,…

And I was just like, “I’m sorry, I didn’t think I would get deployed, or at the least didn’t really think about it.”

And I remember her saying, “ I figured you’d go”

And I was like, in my mind, “oh ya…9/11…Iraq…all that shit”

Alright gals and guys, stay locked and loaded.

Sorry if part 5 was a little erratic but your conductor is VERY f*cked up ;)

Thanks! Love you all always!

Stay tuned for inbetweens, flash forwards, and Ft Polk & Iraq
