Keeping up to par with Devin
So...Devin left Sunday and stayed in Salt Lake that night. He had to wake up at 4am on Monday morning to go to the Military Entrance Processing Station to get a mini physical, swear in, and complete paperwork. He then left to go to the Salt Lake Airport where he caught his first flight at 12:55 and landed in Chicago at 4:50ish (Chicago time) and then left Chicago at 7:40 to land in Louisville, Kentucky at 9:50pm. He got to the base and was excited for bed, but he didn't get to go to bed!!! They briefed them and made their beds and then the sergeant made them clean the barracks before they went to sleep. They ended up getting in bed at about 2:30am, but then another group came in at about 3am and they had to get out of bed to help them make their beds and clean the barracks. By the time they finished... it was time to get up and get ready for the day. He got his head shaved, which he loves and has been so excited for, but he says he looks ridiculous. haha. Today, Tuesday he got his uniform and he gets his dog tags :) He officially starts Friday because the first couple of days are called reception..all the exams and uniform fittings and classes go on during this period..then all the push ups and running and exercises start. Drill sergeants have been yelling since he got there. Look what he signed up for :) ...it'll be good and I'm proud.
