Well, Jathan called last night about 9 pm from the bus. He was not far from Ft Knox and when they were going to get off the bus they would have their cell phones and personal items taken. He asked for prayer since the plan was to keep the newbies up all night processing. He probably wouldn't get to go to sleep until tonight.
He probably won't get to contact us for at least a week or so. They apparently have "phone time" when they return cell phones for ten minutes or so, because they don't have enough pay phones for all the men to use. Then, Lord willing, he can provide an address.
Tom looked online and Ft Knox says that the only thing the men are allowed to received in the mail is letters, photos, or magazine articles (not magazines!). Anyway - please pray for Jathan today when you think of it. He will have a tough day today.
I thought of sending some scripture verses for encouragement. He might not have much time to read for the next two months.
Welcome to the military!
