New Batch of Letters

Letters dated March 18, 19 and 20.

Highlights:
1) Tim qualified on the shooting range despite multiple weapon malfunctions.
2) Started Advanced Rifle Marksmanship on 3/19/11 - shooting at moving targets, etc.
3) He asked me to pass on this message - he's got plenty of time to read letters, so there is no need to cut them short. He is interested in hearing even the boring details of our lives.
4) The weather has been warmer and sunnier.
5) Getting used to wearing helmet and body armour, which weights 35 lbs.
6) May attend Catholic service next Sunday.
7) He is counting down the days to Family Day.
8) Tim is losing track of time - the days run together and he has difficulty remembering one day from the next. He asked Debbie to send him a calendar.
9) Has made some friends, but no enemies.
10) Disappointed he doesn't have a nickname yet.
