These are Matt's children. Taz and Red. I talked to Matt this morning and he had a Motor Pool Inspection where our of 5 other Motor Pools in his Batallion they got an excellect rating. Way to go - MATT. He has PT most days and there is a PT test on Wednesday.

Spare time is watching movies and playing Guitar Hero - he is working on expert.

The motor pool is very close to where he sleeps and he works 12 hour days. There has been no days off for the past 2 1/2 weeks.

He has 2 room mates now and has one empty wall that he would like to have pictures of family on. So - if you get a chance - send pictures. Bathroom is a port a poty behind his building and the HOT Shower is 2 - 300 meters away.

He is in good spirits and sends his love.
