I know the feeling, I got my first call and I got so nervous I could barely talk. I wanted to ask so many questions but I was so out of it that after I hung up I couldn't remember what we said to each other!!! Oh, it's so good to have news from your loved one. My son is my youngest, and I miss him SO MUCH!!! yesterday we got a letter from him and he said he's fine, he also said how good the food was, he got promoted to AROC the day after he wrote the letter so he wrote a little note telling us about it. I can't wait to see him!!! i'm flying from Dallas, TX, any one knows the best airports to go to>

Where is your son A School?? My son's is Pensacola FL but I don't have information on what time or when he's flying out. We are flying Thursday into Chicago and then rent a car until Sunday. We still need to figure out the hotel to stay. I'm not very good navigating these pages but I'll try my best.
