Well thanks to the Army mixing up things, Caleb Showalter left today for basic training, instead of next Monday, and he also will be in Ft. Jackson, in Columbia, SC.

Just like that he was gone.

Clay, give your wife a big ole bear hug and tell her she did a great job raising that young man. She’ll definitely need it in the coming weeks...

My mom can tell you the dates I left for boot camp, Iraq and Afghanistan every time. Leaving has to be harder on the parents. Congratulations for raising a strong young man! What MOS?

35F intelligence analyst, after AIT he goes to jump school.

He then will finish his last semester in college, and be an officer. He didn’t want to wait because he wanted them to pay for last year of college, and they don’t do split training for his MOS.
