Well we've made it to the halfway point of BCT and I can't express the way his letters make me feel. Just today I've been missing him dreadfully and coming home I found his letter in mailbox, just like if I ordered it 
.
And I wish I could let you all read some of his letters because he "sounds" exhausted, mentally and physically - and at the same time you can read he's enjoying the things they teaching so very much. He's talking about the entire platoon getting smoked because after pitching 70 tents in administrative formation within an hour (which is good) the DS' then decided they'd rather have them in tactical formation which they did not manage to do on time.
Here a part of his letter: " So once we got 4 hrs. of sleep we moved on to the confidence course. Big obstacles, really tall ones, human ladders, 9 ft of the ground balancing beams. It was a lot of fun but I have giant ripped off calluses/ new blisters on my hands and mole skin doesn't work real well on hands.
And today we repelled off of the warrior tower. That was nerve wrecking as hell but after you took that first step so so much fun!
Things are getting easier but I still miss you every day."

There is so much excitement there and so much positive that I can't even wait to hear what he has to tell us next!!
