How are you all, last month and this months has been hell. because we have moved hospital into new spanking new hospital.

Emergency patient Transport to Seoul

G'day all this is joe, I thought I was going to lebanon this month, but I think I missed out by one spot...:( damm it. I really wanted to go there!

anyway I am out of Army barrack for tonight, becase I have moved from orthopedic department and went into Plastic surgery department now.

I am PS medic now, and today some one got hurt bad in the face ( I hear he got his face blown by grenade of somekind, it looked pretty bad) so we transported patient to bigger capital hospital.

so here I am writing my blogg.

oh yeah a lot happend since my last blogg. We moved hospital to Ham Pyoeng... its very nice clean place just 40 min out of where we were in GWANG-JU.

a lots of things to be done in the PS department. I am coping well.

we got brand spanking new building so that bonus.

second platoon day out

1 night 2 days in the city

G'day all I am stil alive and kicking, sorry that my last blogg was pretty sad. It was very difficult time for me last couple of months.

The army was asking me too much too fast getting used to the life of soldier.

anyway I am all back to normal JOe again still doing it with SMILE :) :)

Couple of news I volunteered for United Nation (UN Peace Corp), yeah I was thinking about going other country... there was applicatoin to be filled out so I did.

if I get selected I will be at the Lebanon in JULY this year, of course working as Medical officer. ohh yeah another good news kinda... Our armed force hospital is moving into new building next month, and I wont be working in the orthopedic department but Plastric surgery. yeah I got re-assigned to PS department. yeah yeah what you thinking.. lipo-suction and removal of moles and botox hahahahha.... I doubt that I will be doing that kinds of surgery in the army hospital.
anyway something to look forward to...

ohh yeah I am no longer PFC (private first class) I am Private Second Class NOW!! I have 4 people that will follow my instructions :) well they kinda have to cuz I SAY SO :) hahah :) the buety of chain of commnad I'll say.

Army life
