My ds Adam just left for Boot Camp, I am so excited for him and extremely nervous all at the same time! This is by far the most challenging thing he has ever done. This kid was not a physical person and played alittle bit of high school football but didn't want to sweat growing up, which I know he will be doing a ton of both from now on for the next 13 weeks. His dad is a retired Marine. He worked so hard to just get into shape to leave because as I said he wasn't a physical person to begin with, but worked hard working out twice a day and had a positive attitude. Wish him luck!!

Good Luck to him! I know quite a few DI's down there. Maybe he'll get one of them. I wish him the best.

Best of luck to your son. Hang in there mom, he will do great! What areas is he interested in going into? If he goes into Intel there is a great chance my dh might be getting him over here after bootcamp.
