Last week's letter ~ MIA ????

Hello Everyone, Linda here again.  I did not received the blog update this week I was feeling bad and of course worried because the letters have been coming on Thursday without fail.  The good news is we receive our third  telephone call from Patrick today and he sends his apologies for not getting the letter in the mail last week.  He said he was so busy he just did not get a chance to finish and mail it.  So, we will get a double header this week.  He sounds very good he said that this next week is going to be a tough one but it will be the last week of actually training so he is stoked.  The last two weeks they will be given a chance to heal and build up their strength for the next assignments.  Patrick is going to need to try and gain some weight too.  He started basic at 197 and is now a lean 165.  Keep him in your thoughts and prayers this week he is almost done with basic.  Thank you all love Linda.
