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.

I certainly enjoy reading all the blogs from all the companies. We know how hard and busy training is. We thank each and everyone of you who has volunteered to write the blogs for your team. Whoever is writing, keep up the good work! We like the Positive and Confident blogs from Romeo-181.
SEMPER PARATUS.

I know it is hard, but I know that you are up to the challenge! Winston Churchill said,

Hi There Romeo 181 -
Fantastic journal news from last week. I almost felt like I was there with you experiencing all of the emotions that you must have had. The pictures that were posted today are awesome! Can't wait to hear about your post boot camp station assignments & hopefully you will all get well soon from the dreaded Cape May Crud. All of your family & friends are thinking about you, praying for you and wishing each one of you only the best. You're team Romeo-181 now! You can be extremely proud of everything that you have accomplished and all that you will soon acheive in these final weeks together.
I can hardly wait to see you all at graduation and especially to watch my first-born child Daniel enter the world of the United States Coast Guard as a new Guardian. Your entire family and all of your friends are sooo proud of you Daniel. Keep up the great work, stay strong and know that we are thinking about you all of the time. I am in awe of what you are doing so keep your head and your spirits high and we will be seeing you very soon.
All of my love, Mom
P.S. Another letter went out today.

Hey families! Just a FYI ... your recruit can not read this blog.
It is meant as a tool for families to interact with each other who have recruits in the same week of training.
Hang in there! Trust me, they are in good hands!
