I passed all swimming portions like it was a kitty pool! We swam with camies, rifle, packs, war gear, and cevlar helmets. 10 including me and other recruits out of 78 passed.

We have a new senior DI and DI's. It is difficult and not common to switch out senior DI and regular DI's. Right now I am on fire watch and really tired. But I will live. :)

While I was running I started singing hymns and primary songs and I felt better and able to run faster (I am not a runner)

I pray every night and thank Heavenly Father that I can do this. I will be a United States Marine!

I love you all. Keep writing letters. It helps.
