Here he is...Sailor Blake.   That's right he is an official Sailor in the US Navy.  Currently he is in A school at Great Lakes, IL.   He will be there until March 8.  After that date he will receive orders to go somewhere in the world.  Blake is doing well  and graduated from boot camp.  He is meeting many new people and has a great opportunity to learn all he can about being in the hospital corps.  Hopefully he will get some liberty around Christmas time and we will get to see his "smiling" face.  ( Apparently there is a no smile code in the Navy! )
