The Marine in Action



I have spoken to Charlie a few times since he has been in Japan but his Internet in his room goes in effect September 1st. After that, the best time to reach him on Skype would be 6-9AM CST, 3-6PM CST, or 9-11PM. I'm mostly just guessing but they spend most of their time in their room when they are not training. Until Sept 1 he usually walks the half mile to the Internet lounge once a day around 6-9AM CST (for him its 8-11PM after he gets off work).

In lieu of hiking and running they are swimming every day to train and trying to get acclimated to the very hot and humid weather. He is doing very well and Catherine and I sent off his very first care package on Tuesday! He will probably recieve it next Tuesday or Wednesday but letters arrive much sooner. He would love to get mail so if you have a few minutes, write him a little note and drop it in the post.
School starts for me on September 8th and I am really looking forward to it. Anything to occupy my mind is welcome really so it will be a nice change.
