Thank you all!!! We are so very proud of him. We did receive notification that our son was selected as the Honor Recruit for his division. There are other awards that granted in the next coming weeks --- good luck to all of them. Talk about emotional roller coasters.
I just read in another group what the letters are. Congratulations to those who have received one!
I am curious too! Should we be expecting a letter?
