Week 5/40

I had a good week. We finally got to go to sea and do our primary job -mine countermeasures. It was good to be underway after six months of being stuck pierside. I am continuing to learn a lot and stay busy as time keeps flying by.
I got to shoot an M240 automatic machine gun mounted on the ship. Unfortunately I didn't get to see how I did because they had already sunk our target. But I'm sure I would've hit the target every time. We also watched the explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) team detonate an underwater bomb and make a huge splash in the water.
