Dear Family,
Thanks for keeping posted on how my things are at home. I am glad to know my bills are correct/in order. When you all get here there is a family day, and then graduation that Friday. As soon as I About Face and guys rush on that parade deck and find me! We can pack up and go. I am pretty sure that I am going to want to just go home quick.
I will spend one day relaxing with you in Cali, but I want to get to the Snow and have Christmas home in Utah.
Today, we go back to the MCRD-it's the first day of Phase 3. I qualified as an expert in the marksmanship, I scored a 320 our of 350 combined over both the know distance course and the combat course. It was a lot of fun but I am glad to be in the home stretch. I am so excited to see you all and for you to see me. I am not sure I "look" different but I feel a lot different. My self control and disciple are through the roof! I am under 180 now. We have completed all the hikes other than the final one up the reaper. I don't know if I told you? I am a fire team leader in my squad. The guide wants to make me a squad leader, he says I do more as a fireteam leader than most squad leaders. So that is exciting. Other than that, I don't really have much news.
I am really starting to miss you all really bad. I have one request, my first meal outside of here needs to be Chinese! So do some research in the area so we can go straight there after I graduate. Pack some of my clothes, my phone, some toe shoes.
I love you all!
Love, Tanner
