A Command Sergeant Major had the audacity to give me an on-the-spot correction for a uniform violation recently. It was the best thing that has happened to me in a long while.

These past few weeks, I've received emails and a blog comment asking about what is my work out routine and how do I accomplish scoring high on the APFT. Thanks to C Riggs (shout out, girl!), I wanted to dedicate an entire post to this topic. I hear it all the time that guys complain that the female standards on the APFT are too weak.

I had a patient today that had been eating something frozen and heard a crack. He had been evaluated by both our Prosthodontist and our Periodontist and was scheduled with me for an extraction and bone graft. We were taking out the center tooth that has the black color coming through. The tooth appears to have given him some problems in the past. If you look right where his lip comes down parallel to that tooth you can see a pink circle. He had an area where puss...read more
