Hi Jamie, I have asked my son what his job will be and he hasn't quite answered except to say that their division won't be visible much since they are working. He was disappointed but said he got over it, just looking forward to seeing us after. I have joined FB forum also, but don't write much. I will order scarves and I have ordered ribbons also. Yesterday was my sons original date to leave so glad he is almost done now. He said this week is what they call hell week so I will be looking forward to see what goes on then. Hoping for a letter tomorrow, seems to be the day.
