I found a facebook page for the group my boyfriend is in for army boot camp. My friend from work who is also an army girlfriend, told me there was a page for her boyfriend and my other friend had a brother that was at the same base for boot camp that my boyfriend is at now. I check the page daily because they give us updates of what the soldiers did today and how to send them letters to the address.
I checked this morning and they had posted some pictures!! It was hard to find my boyfriend because they look alike and there are different colors for different groups. There was one picture where I can see my boyfriend clear as day but the sun is shining on his uniform and I can't tell which color group he's in. I saw another picture and I'm 99% sure it's my boyfriend but it's kinda hard to tell since part of his face is blocked. I sent him a letter today so he can have my address and I"m going to ask what color he is, which will make it easier to spot him.
Seeing that picture made my day so much better and I got so excited that I had to tell somebody about it lol. Even though I'm not able to talk to him directly, it's still nice to have updates and pictures about what they're doing and it puts my mind at ease a little. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing more pictures of him and getting my first letter from him :)

I'm glad to hear that you are able to get pictures of him and get updates. That is awesome that they do that. That way at least you can know what he is doing throughout the day since you are able to talk with him yet. When will you be able to talk with him on the phone?

Yeah, it really makes me feel a lot better when I'm able to read at night what they did during the day. Yesterday they had to rappel down a 40 foot wall! I wish I was able to talk to him though and he from him how things are and how he feels about everything. I sent a letter yesterday and hopefully he'll be able to write soon. I'm not sure when he'll get a phone call :( I think he'd get phone privileges if he's group does really well for the day or week. I'm hoping I'll get one soon though, I miss his voice.
