Moving to Pendleton

Hi Everyone!!!

Jason has been transitioning to Camp Pendleton so he might not be able to get letters as quickly to people and such but he's doing really well and here are a couple of updates on him! He gets mail once a week so he'll try his best to keep up.

He is currently on phase two and started field week, rifle week, and grass week. This is an interesting part of training for him. He passed his swim test and has already taken graduation pictures in his dress blues!

Unfortunately, he went to medical and it turns out that he has bronchitis so he got medicine for that and is much better but it definitely took a toll on his training. He took his initial physical fitness test and he feels weaker than when he first arrived to boot camp. He did well but needs to improve on his pull ups especially being squad leader.

His platoon got second to last on PFT and his Senior was upset. But they moved on a Saturday and packed all day that Friday. Everything is really precise and it took a while to move but at least the waiting gave my brother a chance to catch up on a little bit of sleep.

He's still taking it day by day so keep writing and encouraging him! A little more than a month and he's done!!
