Hi Gary

Sorry to miss you other day. I take it you also have a son in Div. 174.

My son Chris, is there. We are from Huntley, IL. All this Navy stuff is new to me, I have Army background, as does the family- chris is first one in Navy.

Hi everyone,

My son has been there since 3-19, but think this Friday marks start of week 4 for his division. Just got 2 letters in mail today, seems to be doing good. He said he is ready to get to A school and get to fleet- guess he's getting little worn on the daily grind of BC.
