Days 128 & 129

Happy hump day y'all! You know what that means!? We are THAT much closer to the weekend! Yesterday and today were pretty easy for the cadets. Yesterday I heard from J around 6pm. He was shining his boots and brass and studying. They have their final tomorrow which gives them a good checkpoint to come back to. IF a cadet passes the final, but should fail anything from then to graduation, they have the option to come back to the academy when the next class gets to week 21. For example, the seniors now are having a good handful of cadets joins them once they reach week 21. J is confident he'll do well, but he was still studying and reviewing to properly prepare himself. They were supposed to have scenario retesting yesterday, but since they finished it all on Monday, they had a study hall for the first 4 hours of the day, then their discrimination class for the next 4 hours. Today was a pretty good/ interesting day according to J. They had a mock trial based on the report writing they were tested on a couple weeks back. J said that the instructors/ staff officers chose poorly written reports and the cadets who wrote them to show how important it is to be thorough and detailed on your report. J said during this mock trial, cadets served as jurors and they even brought in a "defense attorney" to do the questioning. I think that was actually a really good idea because it can show the cadets first hand how important their reports are. J didn't have to stay in for restriction today, so he treated himself to some in n out then went back to shower, study and get ready for tomorrow. We chatted for a little bit, then J called it a night pretty early. I'm just happy he's coming home this weekend! 46 more academy days left guys! 

129 days down... 65 days to go!
