Yay! Today was yet another test... this one was on rifle drill, and in spite of being a little nervous, he passed it. A couple more tests later this week, then next week they're out for field exercises. I sent him a care package last week, which arrived today, loaded with energy bars, beef jerky and snacks to take out there with him, plus some odds and ends that I though might come in handy. He got some teasing when a few of the guys saw that I sent along baby wipes - but one of the officers pointed out that baby wipes are a soldier's best friend out in the field.

So there, boys. LOL
