Today we received a telephone call from Chris. Since finishing the Crucible on Saturday, today he was allowed 3 hours of on-base liberty and he called.
Hearing his voice for the first time in three months was a bit emotional but joyous as well. He is doing well and in good spirits. When he officially became a Marine at the end of the Crucible, he said it was the proudest day of his life. We will see him Thursday and we'll be able to spend time with him as well as on Friday during Graduation.
THANK YOU all for keeping him in your thoughts and prayers while facing the most challenging time of his life.
Hopefully you will get to see him while he enjoys 10 days of leave at home from August 14th to August 25th.
