August 10 letter

Hey Family and Friends I miss you all. Just for saying, Boot Camp for the Marine Corps is not easy. I am tired all the time, food isn't an issue because of all the DI's (drill instructors).  I love this, don't worry, I am fine. The strictness is what I was looking for.

I am learning how to drill all over again - how to talk (now, I don't have a voice right now because we yell so much) - how walk - how to sleep - drink- eat (meal times 5 min to eat all 3 meals) - head calls (bathroom breaks)  - and how to look at Drill Instructors. I LOVE THE MARINE CORPS!

July 27th was the day we started MCMAP (Marine Corps Martial Arts Program) It was hard but the DI was impressed because when I hit the practice mat my knuckles indented it and moved it a foot.

I am going to church every Sunday and it is so spiritual. If it wasn't for going to church I would break down. Keep me in your prayers and see you at Graduation! Ask Grandpas to come to Graduation... both of them.
Love you all soo much, Tyler West
