In the Army Now!

It's final!  As of last night Wes officially signed the contract.  He is going to Officer Candidate School.  He leaves January 14th for 10 weeks of boot camp. Following boot camp is 12 weeks of OCS.  After OCS is a 2 week training.  After all this he will go to branch training, depending on which department he gets into determines how long that will take.  We are hoping for military intelligence.  The branch training can take anywhere from 3 weeks to 3 months.  When he has finally finished training we get to be together and find out where he will be stationed.  His top three choices of where to live were Germany, Hawaii and Japan, but we could end up anywhere.  After that hopefully we can be together for a while before he gets deployed.

I'm very upset that you guys might end up even farther away from me. I don't know what I will do if I can't talk to you almost every day. I don't know what it costs to call out of country. I am happy for you guys though. You'd better try to come see me before you guys move. I need to spend some time with my niece and nephew.

You and Nicole talk everyday... man I'm jealous... of your closeness!! Well, if you move to those far off places I will have a more convincing argument to visit there! But it just sucks when people you like have to live far away!
