Is that an M-16?

Mike here again...

Yes, it is. After leaving College Station we spent one night in Fort Hood, Texas with more family. My step-brother (BJ) is an army medic stationed in Fort Hood and we were able to have about five minutes of his time while he was training in the field. He leaves for his first tour of Iraq later this year so keep him and his family (wife and ten month-old son) in your thoughts and prayers.
