Walking the Dropzone

You know your an Army wife when you spend your Sunday morning "rucking" (walking or marching with your full ruck sack on) the 7 mile perimeter of an active drop zone.

Sorry Dad, I did not have a ruck on myself but everyone else did. We took all three of our dogs and our friends took theirs too.

When we arrived that morning the red flags were up around the zone signaling that the range was open. No worries though, the range is far enough away that it wouldn't bother us to walk that morning. It was a beautiful day with a strong cool breeze and the sounds of heavy artillery were in the air.
