Letter ONE!
Here is an excerpt from the FIRST letter we received from Caleb!! We were SO excited!!
"Hello Family,
How is it going at home? It's been really busy here. When I got here on Monday we raked leaves for 4-5 hours waiting for the rest of the recruits to arrive. R night (the first night we were here) was very interesting which is about all I can say about that right now anyway. The next day we got up early for PT which is Physical Training Exercise. It hasn't been too hard as of yet but I'm sure it will get harder. We are learning the basics such as: how to stand at attention, how to press and starch our BDUs, how to address authority, etc.
We have seven recruits in our squad. We are the Third Platoon Bravo Squad. Our squad Cadre is S. D. - he's the best squad leader, firm but fair. There is a booklet filled with regulations that if you don't get right you'll hit the deck and do from 7-17 push ups or flutter kicks depending on the infraction and circumstances. I've had to do a lot but we are getting better. I got your letter today. Thanks for all your nice notes!
Caleb"
Keep up the prayers . . . thanks everyone!

ALERT blog
Check out the ALERT blog (below) to see pictures of Unit 47 - see if you can spot Caleb anywhere! We noticed him in 4 pictures . . . but you will only spot him in 3, if you look VERY closely. In the one of them doing push-ups, we noticed the color of his sock and shoe - he's the second to last person!
We are looking forward to receiving a letter from Caleb later this week (he writes one every Sunday) and if there's anything newsworthy - which I'm sure there will be - I'll be sure to post it on here!
