Grandson Gerry is about halfway through basic now, he has been able to call and they have internet access, if they aren't too tired to use it.
It looks like they'll all survive!
O aimed a little arrow at his little bald head, LOL I hope this running through the woods holding hands stuff isn't part of Obama's indoctrination LOL!

I’m sure whatever it is he’s doing here is hard stuff. Awesome. Give him my best. I know you’re proud.

I figured out about halfway through boot camp that the purpose of boot camp was to 1. make you work as a team and 2. to attempt to make you quit.

He shaved his head before he left, said he wanted it tanned ahead of time, LOL.

Ummmmmm, what is with the safety glasses? I was never issued safety glasses. I was never issued sneakers and work out shorts for PT either.
Just needling him a bit. Congrats to them all!

Way better to do Basic in GA in Feb/Mar, rather than the Summer. Tell him to stick around for Jump School ~ big fun.

Be sure to obtain the Video that will be produced for the rotation.
It is so very cool to watch them all come out of the gas chamber with a few liters of snot coming out of their upper airway system.
Basic Army Training is nowadays way more challenging than when I went through it long ago.

Smart kid. That Georgia sun can be brutal on a freshly shaved scalp. Be even worse in a few months.

I didn't get safety glasses, sneakers, or shorts either. But I also didn't get the “learn to love a homo” training. Good luck to the lad.
