First day. It's not very exciting here. They gave us uniforms, showed us around the place, and showed us where we would be sleeping. I'm currently sitting on my cot, writing this. I met most of the people here already, some like me, some don't. It is what it is.
Everyone calls people by their last name to show "respect." They aren't really showing any respect to me. All of the guys that I share a bunker with call me "Avocado." They call me this to make fun of my last name which is Alvorado. To be honest, it is kind of funny.
