My son Geoff begins 32 days of basic training at Fort Lewis today. He's a little apprehensive about it, but I am certain he will do just fine.
Good Luck Son!

Head games, Geoff. It's all about the head games and staying strong where it counts - in your head.
Of course - by the time he reads this he'll have figured this out. If he doesn't already know it.
Hey, pass along my congrats!
I never did Basic, but I did ROTC Field Training. I'd agree with Brian. I'd add one thing - don't slip into the mental rut of just "toughing it out, and surviving". I did that a few times earlier in life, including Field Training, and it meant that I underperformed. Try to wake up each day and decide not just to muddle through, but to conquer!
you're kidding right? YOUR Geoff went into the Army? dear god tell me he is not going to get shipped overseas? Mark- i am neither a supporter of this war nor of htis potus but i do support our poor kids over there. i'm workign with the wounded warrior project.
please keep us informed of where he's stationed at all times!
