NMM:

Great work this morning by 23 hungry PAX. I said the same thing after my Colden Corral Q. The Fort PAX continues to get stronger and stronger. Todays work out was constant movement with no "10 counts" A true testament to the collective fitness level of our men. Take a step back and look at where you were a year ago. On ward and upward.

Sometimes we need all little course correction. Today mine came with the reminder of choosing my words carefully. Particularly when it comes to cursing. There definitely is a way to motivate and lead by example with out the unnecessary F-Bombs. We are buildingcharacter, not characters. Thank you CSPAN for keeping me honest and for the #accountability. @#$%$%&#@!

Announcements: Invergence, Children's Attention Home, Labor Day Murph, New AO on Monday in Indian Land, New "Black Diamond" work out, Camp Care 5k, Premature Oktoberfest: check website and email blast.

Prayers: Flipper's friend for physical and emotional healing and guidance to safety during pregnancy and cancer. WWL's brother- possible job layoff with wife, child, and baby on the way, Decibel- fo Noah and his health/growth as well as continued prayers for a healthy delivery and new baby. Truckers family and friends as they embark on a fun and memorable journey to another country

Lastly prayers for our PAX men that have internal struggles spoken and particularly unspoken. Know that when you stand around in COT, staring across at your fellow man, perhaps comparing yourself to him and his life- you may be thinking he has it together and you don't- know that we are all struggling with something and this is the reason why we post. Every Time. At least I do...

I love this f'n group.(sorry CSPAN)
