That is funny.

But, try going to Fort Hood, where all of the training areas are Open Range Cattle Area. try waking up to a Big Freaking Cow sniffing around your sleeping bag. Scared the living crud out of me. I laugh about it now! :)

Ahh, memories. Memories of a young, some would say handsome, Private being awakened for his first guard shift at his first rotation through Hohenfels. As this young, handsome Private is donning his boots, the individual who had preceeded him as guard hands him a large branch. "Was ist das", asks our protagonist. "Its a boar stick", is the reply. The dashing, and don't forget young, Private pondered the meaning of boar stick for the first few minutes of his guard shift, when a large rustling and squealing did erupt from the underbrush nearby send him leaping atop the commander's hatch of the closet M3A1 Bradley Cavalry Fighting Vehicle. Ponder he did not, the meaning of "boar stick". At the close of the Private's watch, as his replacement was donning his boots, the Private thrust the weapon upon his unsuspecting replacement. "Boar stick", is all he said as he hustled back to his bag for the remaining two hours before the new day began, leaving his replacement to ponder the meaning of the "boar stick". finish

We used to see them on the road to the Sim Center just off the main road near Ft. Stewart almost every time we had an exercise or Annual Training down there.

Of course there was the one time from the Sim Center back to the barracks after our shift was over that we counted almost 20 deer alongside the road.

The mosquitoes in February is another story entirely.
