Another day brings us another time zone further east. Clocks fall back again tonight, much to the delight of students looking forward to an extra hour of sleep. Alpha became the final company to take the current round of training exams today, which means that the final countdown to flashlights has begun. Delta will be the first company to take them, in three short days, followed by Charlie Company. Alpha and Bravo will take them after our stay in New York City.
