Getting to form a cohesive Team, with all of 85 plus different personalities and ages, is quiet a task. Take one step at a time guys, you will make it. And when it is all done, you'll look back and rejoice on your accomplishments.
I do hope you guys get something special for Christmas like...10 more minutes of sleep or 10 more seconds for your showers.
Mr "D" stay focus, with a positive attitude and giving all the possible effort needed. We miss you and are looking forward to seeing you for your
Graduation. The biggest and warmest hug from Dad.; December 24, 2009 at 1:18 AM

Apparently, the fun stuff starts in week 4, great, remain focus, you are almost there. It is hard to express our appreciation for all the families that took the T-182 into their homes and shared their spirits with all of you; it is so special.

Smiths in Idaho said...: HAPPY NEW YEAR TANGO 182!! Week 4 is coming to an end and Week 5 is beginning. Remember all of you are trying to reach the same goal. GRADUATION on 01/29/10. It will be here very soon. Work together and learn the true meaning of "United we stand, divided we fall." The true meaning of a team is giving up "me, myself, and I".

SR Justin Smith and SR Jacob Smith, you are both making me very proud. Good luck with your "Dream Sheets". Remember it is not always a straight line from point A to point B. Just keep working toward your personal goal no matter how many curves are thrown at you. I love you both. MOM; January 1, 2010 at 2:19 PM

RECRUIT JOURNALS

Journals are posted to USCGBOOTCAMP by close of business every Tuesday. The first journal for each company is posted in week three of training.

If a journal entry is not posted, it means one of two things, the company is in week one or two of training or the Web master did not receive a submission.

The journals were created to provide family and friends with a peek into the lives of their recruits. The recruit historians try to document the experiences of the company not individual recruits.

We hope you enjoy reading the journals and experiencing Coast Guard Recruit Training through the eyes of our Guardians in the making.
