i had been up and going for three or four hours before anyone else even started to wake and had been busy. i had eaten breakfast... twice, done my morning jog around the base, could have sworn i heard a man voice in the commander's room but it must have been the T.V. i lifted weights in the gym and moved all my things to the ship which was as far as i got because i had not received my room assignment yet so i sat on a crate in the hanger cleaning my sidearm waiting for everyone else. I was on the far side of the hanger when commander Monroe walked in. I stood put my gun back together and walked across the hanger.

it had been a pretty long night for me, i always had trouble sleeping before a big mission like this. i had turned my alarm off before it could even ring and gone to the mess for some breakfast talked to the other early birds mostly L.T. commander Sharp who said he eaten one breakfast already but by the size of his plate it look like he hadn't eaten in days. after that i had gone back to my room to finish packing.
