Navy Seal Boots: RIP. Apparently the Navy never figured on walking around in the desert on egg-sized gravel. Go figure. Now my New Balance shoes have held up very well. I think if I can get some regular hiking boots with the tough soles I won't have to bury them as well.

That is unbelievable!
Well, you've got a pair of ARMY boots on the way. I'll be following those up with a pair of MARINE boots so we'll see if any branch of our military services can make a pair of boots that will last you longer than a month.
If not, I'll bring some hiking boots when we see you in October.

My Brahma boots from Walmart have held up quite well and I have pretty much just used them since arriving at Ft Bliss. They were pretty cheap, too.
You might need to do a commercial for Walmart when you get back if their Brahma boots held up better than the armed services issued boots. I guess the little pebbles are hard on all shoes. I would think tennis shoes would blow a hole pretty quickly. I might send you a good pair of tennis shoes before your year is out.
Little pebbles, huh? I'll post some pictures of our "pebbles" shortly.
