Finally got a letter from Kyle, not just a form letter. He's doing good. Lots of physical training, lots of good food, and the time to eat it all in. Seems he keeps his locker so well organized that his is used as an example for others. He is also a Section Leader, which isn't the same as a Squad Leader. Maggie asked someone at work who was in the Navy what a section leader is, and was told that a section leader is over the whole company. Yay Kyle! Evidently they look at the recruits record and that's how the different leaders are picked. So, Kyle is doing great.
Have not heard from Greg yet. When I do I will e-mail his address to those who want it.

Kyle called today, he is doing good, slightly homesick. He likes all the mail he gets. Boot camp isn't nearly as bad as he thought it would be. He gets up early to do physical training with the seals, otherwise the most exercise he gets is marching. I asked him exactly what a section leader is, well he told me that a section leader is leader of a few guys, and that there are six section leaders. So there we have it, straight from the horses mouth so to speak. It was good to hear his voice.

Good to hear Kyle is doing so well. I, too, have gotten a note from him.
I suspect that his previous ROTC training helped him with getting that position. That, and, keeping his gear straightened.
It is good to know he is adapting to Navy life so well. As for the homesickness, that will pass. It is a good sign. He does miss you all.
I hope Greg gets a letter out soon.
It's so nice to hear that Kyle is doing so well. I'm proud.
Greg will contact you soon, so hang in there!
i love you!
