I'm finally here and I'm settling into my room which I share with the other two guys who came with me. We're all in different sections so we won't be always around each other. Not necessarily a bad thing. They're ok, it's just nice to change company now and then.
Do you remember me saying that our flight was to leave at 0130? Well it didn't leave til 0250. We got here at 0315 and to bed at 0400. We slept til 0830 and then had a full day of inprocessing and briefings we've already gotten at least two dozen times. I swear, the army is all about brainwashing. Today there was a battalion bbq which took up most of the day and then they let us off. I have to go back to the room soon and start cleaning my weapon for tomorrow though. So far it's great here. I'll let you know if that changes at all. Buh-bye.

Hey Mike,
I'm sure the army overdoes it on the briefing and re-briefing, but you have to remember not everyone gets it the first or the second or the third time. Your almost-photographic memory was not granted to everyone.
Dad got to talk to Kent the last couple of days--pretty cool. Wish we could call you. I'll email you soon, rather than write a letter in your comment box.
Love and prayers,
Dad, Mom and the gang

Mike -
Reminded our Sunday School class to be praying and added Kent to their lists. Glad you're getting 'settled in'. Keep looking up.
