He's taking basic training at Fort Jackson outside of Columbia, South Carolina. After boot he goes to Fort Lee south of Richmond, Virginia to learn how to weld. I think that is great. Once he becomes proficient in welding maybe he can help Ian put the Mustang back together.
I am truly blessed as I have 2 grandsons and my oldest daughter on active duty and my youngest daughter spent 6 years in the US Navy as a Corpsman.
