Oh man, we are almost done with Month #1 of the Academy! These past 2 days have been super busy for J so we didn't get to talk as much. He has had EVOC all day Monday and Tuesday plus other Academy responsibilities. Monday he had PT in the morning, then EVOC. He had a quiz on the EVOC terms I helped him study this weekend. He said he felt really confident that he got 100%! Which he better, since I helped him study 😜. We texted for a few minutes then called it a night. He was typing up a memo since he has another Wednesday night restriction for their room inspection last week. He said some of the senior cadets recommended it so that they could get their grammar and wording right and not have to rewrite it a thousand times. Tuesday morning I woke up with my usual text from J- he reminded me that they had to meet with their stress resilience counsellors from week 1 AND clean brass on academy grounds. I heard from him around 8:45pm. He said he got 100% on his quiz and a "good job" written on the diagram he had to draw! He said today was a super fun day at on the EVOC course! They had to drive on the grid pattern course at a particular speed (I think he said 60mph) AND it was pouring rain! J said there were a couple times he was watching fellow cadets drive and it got a little sketchy 😳. After a couple of practice runs, the instructors got in their own car and followed the cadets to watch them and give them pointers if need be. J said the instructors told him "good job. Keep it up" after his try. I think that made him super happy and boost his confidence a little bit. I know he's enjoying this week 🤗 Hopefully next week will be just as fun with whatever they're doing ha.
30 days down... 164 to go!!
