My son enlisted in August. He is nineteen. He is at Bragg.
I am not asking whether this was right. I am asking whether he is going somewhere cold. That is the only question I have and there is nobody to ask it.

Tanya — nobody can tell you and anyone who says they can is guessing.
What I can tell you: if he is at Bragg he is with the best-drilled people in the world and they take care of the nineteen year olds first. Keep the phone charged. Do not doomscroll at 3am, it does not make the call come sooner.
