Hi all,
We got a letter from Liz's commanding officer yesterday, just a form letter, but we have her new address.  She did call both Jerry & I this evening, and she's a little homesick, so a letter from family/friends may help at this time.  She said she is doing well, and that MCT is "fun"  (really?) and that she gets to fire a machine gun this week.  So she has something to look forward to!!!!!

Pvt Gill, Elizabeth N
Co: Hotel, Class: 31-11, 3rd Plt.
MCT BN
PSC BOX 20166
Camp LeJeune, NC  28542-0166

Love to all,
Jen

Well, like a tornado, she's come and gone.  Liz left for MCT yesterday at Camp Gregor outside of Camp LeJeune, NC.  She made it safe and sound, we got a call about 1030 last night.  The weather down there is HOT, even worse than what we've had here in Omaha, with temps expected to be in the 100's + humidity.  I just hope she remembers to drink plenty of water!!!!!  I know she enjoyed her stay at home & seeing everyone she got to was great.  She did say Thank You to you all.  Today is kinda bittersweet, it's awful quiet around here again.  Anyway, as soon as I get an address I will post it.
Love
Jen
