I just think we need to keep our conversations going here, Ladies. I got two letters today! She sent me back a questionaire and comments on the 'comments' I sent her from the funny lines from home discussion. It was pretty funny. She said that the first few days she walked in on the boys' barracks three times by mistake. What a dweeb. (wink)
Also- she mentioned TI? Is she just being dyslexic and meaning IT (intensive training)? She said whatever it is seems to be bonding their division.
You guys are talking in code...
I don't understand (wink) What are the jobs you're referring to? Are they just NUKE jobs and if so, why do they do that in BC? just curious
I thought you'd all love to hear that our SRs can now send mail on Tuesdays, Thursdays, AND Sundays! I am ecstatic and got a stack of letters yesterday! AND Division 200 earned their first flag for getting an average of 4.0 (out of 5) on their first exam. On the 12th they got classified, aka got their specific jobs (for Nuke's it's EM, MM, ET) so we should hear soon about that! And how sweet is this...my SRs birthday was last Thursday and the Division made him a card signed by all of them and everyone throughout the day secretly wished him a happy birthday (secretly so the RDCs didn't find out and give them IT).
Makes me so happy that they're getting along so well! They sound like a wonderful group! Just thought you'd all like to hear those things!
