Phone Call 04/21/09 1:00 a.m.

(Shouting into phone) Hello Mother....This is Recruit Bertroche. I have arrived at MCRD San Diego. I will begin training this Friday. The next time you hear from me will be by postal mail, so expect a letter from me in two to three weeks. I will include my mailing address and platoon number. I am in group 2. My expected graduation date is.............(voice normal) whatever. (Again shouting) If any delays occur in my graduation date, I will immediately call you with details. I love you.
