To Aunt Tammy, Oct 14, 2009

Dear Tammy,

I get pretty excited too when I see that I have a letter from you. I heard about Mike too. I was on my 30 hours pass and I needed to contact Mom somehow because the lady did something to her cell phone and so I call him thinking he might be home and he picks up in Billings, Montana. I also heard about that lady passing through mom. I kinda remember her and her kids but its very vague since it was so long ago. Sounds like both of you guys have been keeping busy. Hope everything is still going good for ya. Ya both need another vacation or something. Don't wanna over work yourselves. (smiley face with tounge sticking out) This week I have been doing land navigation. I have been rocking it completely haha. My team didn't get lost once and we walked for about 4 miles today through mud, water/swamp, forest and rain. But all in all we did very good. Mom was just telling me about how she took the dogs to the dog park too. That park sounds actually pretty nice. Ours don't have any streams or anthing and barely any shade. We got ya beat on the small dog area tho. Mom says the dogs are gonna love having me back for a bit and we are gonna try to go to the dog park so they can have me aka "Coach" give them a good workout. I mss them. The other day I had to watch my drill sergants doverman pincer pup for CQ duty. Nice little puppy. I'm almost done here. After this week I am finally able to be called a soldier and then I start my 3 weeks of infantry training. Then its just two weeks of doing nothing really. Then Im done. Hard to think its been that easy. Time is gonna hopefully be on my side and go by quickly. The hardest is yet to come tho. I don't really need anything. Im outta axe (bodywash crossedout) well almost outta axe body wash but I got bar soap still that I can use till I get done from here. So I think I'm fine. Thanks tho. I miss ya and love ya.
Love,
Jeremiah.
