10 days to go.....


Gavin was up at 7:30 this morning, I think maybe he is trying to adjust himself to the early mornings that he is going to have in 10 days. WOW, 10 days, it seems so close now. Gavin is meeting his recruiter at 11:30 today to do his last drug test, and run his last Physical Training requirements. Next Sunday will be here before we know it, and there is so much left to do. I am glad that we are all finally feeling the excitement of this journey. We all believe that Gavin is taking the right path for his life, and we are all so proud of him.

I read a quote the other day that stated, " The only thing harder than being a Sailor, is loving one" SO TRUE!!!!

  1. Oh my, I haven't heard that quote! The month of July has flown, hasn't it? Does he have his assignment yet...or is that something they can't tell you?

  2. He will be in Great Lakes for Basic for about 8 weeks, then he has A school in Great Lakes for another 6 months to become a Medic, so he will be in Chicago for quite a bit. After that he will be assigned, but he won't know where base will be until the end of A school.
