He was in Alabama and Mississippi for one month with very little contact with the outside world. The contact he had was in the form of mail and the bus trip from Alabama to Mississippi and back. Other than that it was 33 days of entrenchment.
My dear one and I were able to fly down to be with him on graduation day. It was an impressive ceremony and you could certainly see how well trained these cadets are.
It was a little intimidating being there because I witnessed all the saluting and stiff walking that was going on. At one point the color guard got yelled at (over the loud speaker) because a tassel on the Red, White and Blue was touching the ground. She fixed it rather quickly and continued her march.
It was a wonderful couple of hours filled with many, many stories. I figure since he was gone for a month, he'll likely have a month's worth of stories to tell so that should keep us gagging or laughing for a while.
Proud of you, Josh!!
