No News is Good News

We haven't received any word from Zach and that's probably a good sign.  Since he wasn't allowed to call in when he got there, we were hoping he'd get to call later. So far, not yet.

Several people have asked how to get in touch with him.  He can only receive letters, old fashioned snail mail.  We don't have an address yet.  He will get to write us and let us know then how to get a letter to him.  Once we do, I'll let you know.  If you'd like to write him, please email me and I'll send it to you. 

There is a fine line between getting mail, which is good and he'll enjoy very much, and getting TOO much mail so that you stick out.  As Tim says, you don't want to be the nail sticking up at bootcamp - You're likely to get pounded!  Make sure you send letters only - no postcards as they tend to get read out loud to the whole platoon.  And as far as I know right now, no goodies or packages.  Just letters.

When we hear something, we'll let you know!
Thanks for your prayers for Zach's health and mental fortitude!
