Well, for those who followed the Jr. Joester injury saga....I got the call
It was a variation of call #1. He was diagnosed with a grade 3 stress reaction, and shut down for 6 weeks. Sadly, he will not be able to march on the Parade Deck next Saturday with his peers. But has HAS successfully completed OCS. The Marines, with all due expediency have arranged for his care, and cut his orders. He ships home today. The grand celebration we had planned will have to wait untill his commissioning in May. We'll be sure to celebrate him here at home with friends. I'm disappointed for him, that he won't have his day on Brown Field, but mostly really proud.
