Time for a rhyme. SPC Fardette

My name's Fardette and I'm a Romeo
I'm required to blog , so here I go.
On Saturday we trained on the Sked
And yesterday everyone bled.
Now the 211th is CLS certified
If I say it was easy, you'd know I lied.
Army training, preparing for Iraq
That's all for now, but I'll hit you back.
