I hope the missionaries let him type it up, because it was a lot longer than it was last week! I would hate to think the senior missionaries had to sit there and type it all up for him...
Anywho, if anybody is interested, here is his email:
Audie,

Sitting in church again, feels like it was yesterday I was home, it's so weird how time goes, the days are forever long, but this has been such a fast week. Today has been bazaar. We did the Leadership Reaction Course where you get put in charge of a small team through a little obstacle course thing only given certain materials and a 20 min. time limit. Mostly its to see how you lead and not so much if you finish the obstacle or not. He said, that is my evaluator, that I did really good. Then later today we had time with the whole flight where they gave constructive criticism. The only bad thing my CTA said was I need to show more that I want to be here instead of feeling like I've been a POC already. She also said I did really good as the squadron commander. Did I mention that? I was squadron commander for a whole day and performed quite well.
After classroom time we watched an episode of Band of Brothers, until we ate Dinner with some BYU cadets, and now I'm here. Such a weird day, too nice and relaxing if you ask me. It is like they have a trick up their sleeve for after services...
We also this week finish our combative's course, which was a 4 day course teaching us how to wrestle and submit people. I guess I did really good because one of the two head instructors came over and asked me my name and flight and told me I should apply to come back next year as an instructor to get certified and such. Then I watched him put my name or whatever in his notes on his phone. I might just do it. It'll look really good on my applications/resume for the AF that I was a Combative CTA.
Our flight has finally flourished into a team, we've really been working together well lately. I was really frustrated not having a leadership spot while we worked under "poor" leaders. I did good leading from behind, but I wanted to be able to do more.
Some things at field training make me excited about our Air Force career, others scare me, but mostly I get excited. We had a really good motivational briefings about the type of people we'd work with, and especially lead, in the Air Force, the quality of good motivated patriots and such, that got me really pumped.
Well I got to get to an Inspection. 
love you so much!
Let me know if there's any way you or any of the family, if they want to come to the parade at the end. email these wonderful people about it.
I miss you so much! Hug and kiss Ellie for me.
Scott
Sad thing is, if anybody were to go out there for his graduation, its like an $800 trip for only a few hours of time spent with him...so....yeah. Probably isn't going to happen :) I've got some other stuff up my sleeve for when he comes home, instead, to kind of make up for it.These are the pictures they attached this week:

| He is reading the email I sent to him earlier that day :) I can tell, because those are the pictures I sent to him on the 2nd page. |
