Lance Corporal Anthony Adams' Wake & TD 7
this evening was the viewing of Lance Corporal Anthony Adams which took place at Mt. Olive Baptist Church in jersey city, nj from 5-8pm. it was good to hear his family members and friends speak about how they would remember his smile and good-natured personality, yet it hurt hearing their pain when they talked about how bad they would miss him. it's cliche, but he's surely in a better place now. it's a shame that his death is the reason why members of my old platoon from iraq gathered... though i think the blessing out of all this is that we got to be in each other's company- something we rarely get to do out of uniform. so thank you Anthony, for enabling brothers to hang out with each other outside of work... we ended up grabbing a few at 1 republik in hoboken afterward.

earlier that morning, HD and i finally continued our TM training... the last time we had a training day was prior to my trip to las vegas. we went pretty moderate and decided not to do cardio, thinking we'd save a little extra kick for tomorrow's team training session... so we'll see. for this TD, we focused on chest, shoulders, and bi's... finishing off with abs:
here's an example of HD going through the ab superset:
tomorrow we bury our brother in the morning, then conduct 4TWC's 1st team training session in the evening. 7 out of 11 members are expected to attend.
