Yay! We heard from him!

We got his address this evening.  If you'd like to write to him, here it is:

RCT Tubbs, Jaxon
1st RTBN Charlie Co, PLT 1053
40002 Midway Ave
San Diego CA   92140-5680

I imagine that he could use words of encouragement. Please only send letters. Please do not send anything with the letters. It could get him in trouble.

His first week there was spent doing things like getting his uniforms, his first Marine haircut, and meeting his drill instructors and platoon.  This week is the first official week of boot camp.

We did get to talk to him before he got to the base, he called us from the USO at the airport.  It was such a blessing to talk to him then, because the next time we heard from him that night, he was hoarse and yelling "I've arrived safely...." from a script.  It had begun, he is on his way.  We look forward to his letters home and will share what we can from there here on the blog.
