Call From John 3-20-07

Hi Everyone,
I got a call from John yesterday around 7:00pm. He only had a couple of minutes to talk but he was doing pretty well. He sounded a little hoarse and he said his platoon had been doing their cadences really loud in order to be able to phase. Last time we heard, they had moved into the white phase after many delays because of people messing up. Well now they have just moved back into the red phase because of some people messing up again. Anyway, he said he qualified with his rifle as a sharpshooter. I guess that's good. Don't really understand it all. He also said he had passed some of the PT tests he has to pass in order to graduate. He also said he was glad he only has four more weeks of basic. It was a really quick call. He always has to get off the phone all of a sudden. But overall, he sounded pretty good.
Keep praying,
Mom
