Have been browsing the pictures at the Facebook page devoted to the group of recruits our Nat'l Guard son is stationed with. And seriously, can you believe that we can actually look at current photos of our kids at Boot Camp? It's not like it used to be, at least not in the Army.
I think I've got it figured out---way out of my scope of experience, so had to learn that there are different Battalions, etc. Anyway, this photo, I think, pretty clearly shows our son, Joseph. He's the white boy smack in the middle of the photo.
Can't beat that with a stick. I'd cut his hair short before he left, but this is, of course, shorter. And the unattractive glasses they have to wear aren't very conducive to fashion, so to find him in a photo requires us to scratch our heads. We've found one more that appears to be him.
Such a comfort to actually see his group and what they're doing. Just touching at the same time to see how young they are and how exhausted they all seem. Bless them all.
