Hey everyone,
     Sorry I haven't responded to any questions lately, We haven't gotten mail in about 2 1/2 weeks.  But life and training still goes on. One month from now I'll be down with boot camp. In 3 weeks plus about 10 hours I'll be a US Marine. This week has been going by kinda slow. All we do is get up, do our morning routine, go to chow, then get split up into working parties around the base. we are with Marines, not the DI's but we are still treated like crap. I can't wait to be treated like an individual again, lol. :) But it's all part of the recruit training experience.
     Good news, I was sitting reading my BOM during square away time tonight and some came up and asked someone questions about the church. We talked for a little bit and I got him to commit to come to church on Sunday!
     Well, gtg. Thanks for the letter and the prayers!
