    Oh no... A Texas cheesehead!! I moved about 15 months ago from Fort Worth to Beloit, Wisconsin. Does that make me a WILonghorn? LOL

    You are looking at a graduation date of April 6th. That Tuesday (travel day) until Friday is all medical stuff. They get picked up by their CC's that first Friday afternoon. That's when the training truly begins but that does count totally as week 1 of boot camp. It is not an additional 8 after that week.

    I know Rockford pretty well. Much bigger than Beloit, that's for sure. How long have you been in Texas? Anywhere near Ft Worth? I was out near Saginaw.

    Hi! I'm also leaving on the 14 of February, what's ur sons name? I'll look out for him. Also look for the company Facebook page and the family and friends Facebook page! They are a wonderful group of people all going through the experience of having your loved one in boot for 8 weeks. They helped tremendously while my husband was at cape may.

    Distance is not for the fearful, it is for the bold. It's for those who are willing to spend a lot of time alone in exchange for a little time with the one they love. It's for those knowing a good thing when they see it, even if they don't see it nearly enough.
