Day 9 (4/19/20) & Day 10 (4/20/16)

80 days until graduation,  Yes, I'm counting down!  Monday, Jeff connected with Staff Sgt. Dejong at Trent's recruiting office.  He was given Trent's address to mail letters and letters ONLY! Everything I read on my Facebook sites and the websites state not to mail anything until the form letter arrives with the address Trent has provided.  I decided to mail letters Monday and Tuesday anyway.  I sent him the journal I've been keeping for him since he left to keep him updated on life's happenings! I knew if I didn't record it as it happened, I would NEVER remember it!  Just a reminder of old age creeping in! LOL  When the form letter arrives, if the address is different than what I've been sending his mail to, I will resend the journal/letters to the new address, that will ensure he receives them.


I will provide his address here as soon as I have the address from the form letter.  As I mentioned before, he would love to get mail from any of you!


I must admit even I run out of things to write (imagine that)!  I've been keeping him updated on world news, Red Wing scores and information I think he might find a bit interesting.  I've been told, they love to get photos.  All letters must be delivered in a white #10 envelop, nothing on the outside except the address.  I'm not even going to mail him a birthday card, just put happy birthday inside a letter to him. 


I guess this cartoon sort sums up boot camp!!
