WTF is up with that dude?"

Man, season 4 can't come soon enough....
Perhaps this 'flashback' to the beginning took place somewhere when Michael got to Ft. Irwin (or some other places you people will piece together based on styles of narrative maybe changing, I haven't fleshed this idea out 100% yet) and now we are experiencing things in 'real time' from various accounts. I mean, didnt they all admit to not writing anything down anymore? Perhaps we caught up with the narrative and this is all happening as its narrated, thus there is no 'end scene' of someone reading the journals, just the actual ending, as it happens. Most likely being everyone dying and Skittles left to his vices Twilight Zone style, or my personal favorite theory of Scratch taking down Ink in the final scene.
