Any parents out there for this group interested keeping in touch during the process, we are newbies to all of this and willing to talk to any as we watch our kids through the process of OCS.
God bless.

Hi, I am Tony Strawa. My Son, Alex, is in 17-16B. I am still trying to get wise in the ways of facebook and just found this discussion.
We are preparing to send out our Candio Box this week. By my calculation the end of week 9 is Sep 9 for our guys. We will be sending 2 in case some of the guys dont get one.
We are also planning to come out for graduation. I hope to meet up with all of you then if you can make it.
Got an email from Zach today! He's friends with both of your kids. Says Matt's funny and Jeremiah is "chill", which is a good thing. Sounds like theyre all working well together. The class president is a little more hardcore, I gather, but good.
I read somewhere that about 2/week is good. I waited a week and sent one off yesterday. I'm not usually much of a writer, but will try to get a few off, as I hear its a boost during some of the tough weeks.

Thanks Jonas, I got a call today from Matt. He didn't have time to talk. I look forward to the emails.
Jim and Christopher,

Jim, you haven't told us about your sailor. Since he is in 17-16 A with Zachary, I'm interested.
