Got a call from Sean this afternoon about noon, Said that it was all over and he finished with flying colors and is doing great, he sounded pretty beat but was feeling great. He called when I was at home for once and was able to talk to everyone here. Congrats to everyone's kids and now sailors. Hope everyone has a great Christmas.

Hey Mark, did you hear from your son ? Sean has called a couple of times today, a buddy of his parents came out from California to spend Christmas with Their son and Sean. So they got the spend the whole day off base and going to dinner etc. Sean sounded great and is ready to hit the trail to San Antonio and see what the next chapter is.

Shane,
We did. We got a call from David this afternoon. He sounded great, had been adopted for the day by a local pub and had great food, got to see a movie and got to call home. My wife and I had the best Christmas present that we could have asked for. David still has Battle Stations yet to go (I guess there are two divisions that have it scheduled for Sunday). Things are going very well! Merry Christmas!

One of the news stations broadcasted a story of Christmas Adoption of our sailors, Bless this couple and all the others who sacrifice their own Christmas to brighten the lives of our soldiers and sailors around the world.

you guys have a safe trip getting there, looks like lots of snow in the mid-west. When I talked to Sean late yesterday afternoon he said it was really starting to snow.
