Update On Andrew

Everyone should read Tipping: A Thesis and watch the YouTube video she has attached to her post if you have the time. I agree wholeheartedly with Nevis’s beliefs on tipping.

*Update on Andrew*

He is still in Missouri. He had to run NINE miles today – everyone did – in order to make the MP program. He said he ran all nine miles, but now he is paying for it. He has extreme pain in his hip and one of his knees. He went to the hospital for x-rays, but doesn’t know the results as of yet. He said they gave him inserts for his shoes and a knee brace. He will be on light duty for the next two weeks. His cab was pulling up as he told me this, so that was all the information I got. He promised to call me back tonight.

*Updated*

The new Platoon Sergeant walked in and said he owed them an apology and congratulations at the same time. He said he was sorry, but no one had told him the trail they ran today was actually twelve miles and not nine. Then he said, congratulations to you all for making it. This was apparently just a preliminary run, so there will be more to come. Hopefully, they won’t be twelve miles long!

Wow...TWELVE miles? When you talk to Andrew again, tell him he is a total rock star and I'm praying he heals up well. I'm proud of him!
