I'm writing to let you know that I am fine. I am not even in basic training yet. I'm still in processing. I don't know when I am going to basic, but I was supposed to tell anyone I write, not to write back to this address. I will write to you when I am in basic and you can write me as much as you want. Apparently processing is harder than basic because they are trying to get us ready. Since I have been here, I have gotten 9 shots. three on each arm, one up each nostril, and one on my butt. Not cool.
I did pretty good on the mile though. I got six minutes and 30 seconds. I think that is the best I have ever done and that was the morning after all the shots, so I was all sore. Now I am sore from running and all the shots.
The food is better than I thought it was going to be. We can't drink soda though. Just milk, juice, and water. I have to wake up at 5:00 every morning, and go to sleep at 21:00 every night. I'm starting to get used to it. The very first morning after I got here one of the first things I did was get my head shaved. A couple of days later, I got my nerd glasses. I look pretty sweet walking round in my uniform though. I'm going to bed now, good night.
Sincerely,
Bradley.

Thanks for posting this... it is good to know how he's doing. I still get weirded out by the shots up the nostrils, I have never heard of that!
Yeah, Shots up the nostrils?? What IS that? Very strange. It's so great to hear from him though, I think of him a lot. It's hard to picture him with his head shaved and his "nerd" glasses, AND his UNIFORM! My little bro is growing up. *sniff sniff* :) Love ya, Brother!
Welcome Home Brad! Where is that picture of you I've been waiting for with you in your sexy uniform and nerd glasses?? Happy New Year tomorrow, I love you guys!
