Dear Friends,
Here I am nearly half-way through boot camp. My time here
has been a roller coaster ride both emotionally and physically. One day
everything’s going great, the next I wonder how I’m going to make it
through.
We’re getting to the point in our training now where most
people can march OK, most can make their racks (beds) cleanly, and most
can be quiet when they need to be. Within the next two weeks of
training we’ll be starting to learn basic seamanship and firearm
handling.
I’m glad to be here, though I’ll be more glad to be done.
Graduation is on June 9th, just 5 weeks away. Wow.
I miss you all and hope that you are well.
Your friend,
Tyler
