Matthew's Letters Home
This is Matthew's ninth letter home.  While we received it only the day after the eigth letter, you can tell by the dates that they were written 4 days apart.  Transcripts and a link to the next page appear at the bottom.
Hello Hello,

          Well, I havsurvived Hell Week....again.  Ya know, I can tell why they call it Hell.  The Good news is its less than 80 days till I'm home and only 38 till family day.  Family Day = 48 Hours pass = real food =)
     Thank you so very much for all of the letters.  They have really been a ton of help.  Also thanks for the pictures, I liked them lots and posted a few in my locker.  I smile every time I open up my locker and see some of you =)  Looking back on my pictures before I left, sheesh, I was scrawney!  Hehehe, it makes me feel even bigger and buffer now HA.
     On SUnday Red Phase ended so now were in White Phase.  That means Daily PT, so I'll at least get more muscular.  lol, the thought of me with muscles, who would have thought?
     Yesterday we mostly just worked on tanks which was pretty boring.  However I did get to sit in the drivers seat and start one up (the engine)  It was really cool!!  Maybe I should switch my MOS =)
     Okay, now you get to hear all about Hell Week =)
