Resa,
Is J Mitchell? Nathan wrote about Mitchell, just curious if J is who Nathan was talking about? Small world. If it is J, I will have to go back and read what it was and tell you what he said. : ) Hopefully we will get letters today, I usually get mine on Thursdays.

Good Evening!
I had done a questionnaire for Shaun because I know he has little time to write. Thought I would share some of the info with you. There are 73 in their division. Of course this was done before they lost at least one last week. He said they have 12 minutes to make the top and bottom bunk and 10 minutes to eat. Everything is done by height. There is one SR taller than Shaun (6'4") and they call him Hightower. I also thought Shaun was the oldest, but there is a 33 year old. The day he filled out my questionnaire, he also wrote that they got fitted for all their uniforms, got their 8 point hats, white sailor hat and peacoat. He was real excited about that. He is anxious to see everyone.

I am thinking that we should be getting I am a sailor calls on Tuesday, May 3rd if the date was correct that someone posted on 159 doing BS on 4/29. That would mean our SRs would be doing it on Monday night 5/2. My son was also nervous about the run and he all ready had his time down before he left, but he said he would make it. Last week, they still had a couple that were making life hard for all of them. Sure hope they have got it together.

They are able to write more now, but it was a busy week for them; in fact the next 2 weeks have a lot going on.

No phone calls this week so I'm guessing my girlfriend passed her test. Wonder when the next phone call is expected?
