Latest from Ev,

via e-mail: "Hey, What's Happening- I received your thanksgiving box the other day, thanx for that. Sorry i haven't e-mailed lately but there's a division passing through camp right now, and since they don't have anything better to do they stand in the internet line for like 3-4 hours. On top of that the phones have been down for over a week now, so the internet is the only means of communication. I'm actually not even using our connection- part of my mission is to drive around to other camps so I'm actually writing from camp ******* right now. I just sent a letter to you explaining this in better detail.

I got a care package from one of your freeper friends the other day, but i don't have the name handy. I'll prolly send her a note myself anyway though. I'll get you the names of everybody who's sent something soon. Hopefully we'll have the wireless network up and running within the next couple of weeks..

Things are going really well here. The schedule is hard to get used to, but I do get enough time to sleep, which is more than i can say for most of the infantry guys. I would go on and on but I'd just be repeating what i wrote to you.. So, thanx for all the stuff....

oh yeah, that reminds me.... I wonder if you could mail me my coffee maker.. should be on my nightstand. The ones they sell in the PX are huge and really expensive. You can take money out of my checking account to pay for the shipping for all my packages. That would be much appreciated though, lots of cold long nights in the desert. One more thing.. if you could give me an update of how much cash i have. It's hard to keep track of, and i don't know how much the phone bill was.. Thanks alot, can't wait to see y'all back home....

Oh yeah, another thing, I finally got pinned with my Specialist rank.. at the formation the first sergeant laughed when he read "date of rank August 11th". Anyway, see you later, take care- Evan"
