It feels so good to know I'll have two drill sergeant free hours at church tomorrow. I don't know if I've ever been so exited for church! I got really excited today when they drill came in with a huge stack of letters, but my heart was broken... (I promise I've sent a letter every day since I got the address last Friday. He should have gotten three letters on Monday). I'm sure there's one in the mail though. The last few days here have been pretty good. We had our combat lifesaver class, which was pretty interesting. But it's so hard to stay awake when you've been up since 4. We had a really humbling experience yesterday. There was a soldier from here who was killed in combat and all the soldiers from the base and in the area lined both sides of the road from the airport to the post. It was pretty cool to stand there and see the respect everyone paid him and get to salute him. I wish he could have come home in different circumstances but I'm glad he received the respect he deserves.
I hope you are celebrating Father's Day tomorrow and I hope you call my dad for me. Even if it's late I know he would appreciate it. This coming Wednesday is the gas chamber and I'm actually kind of looking forward to it. I'm sure it's gonna suck at the time but I'll be able to say I've done it. We also have the warrior tower this week. That'll be cool just to watch all the people who are afraid of heights freak out. It's finally starting to get a little more fun now that we are actually doing stuff instead of boring classes.
Well babe, I hope you and Brooklyn are doing well. I miss you like crazy! Thank you for your support and prayers. I love you!
