Hi Mom, hi Dad.
Just letting you know I'm alright, sorry I haven't been in touch but things have been pretty busy around here. I've already made many new friends in my squadron, Munkata, Lynn, Ramierez, and Yoshi. They're really great people, I think you'd like them.
Come to think of it, all the people on my current ship have been pretty friendly.
I really like military, and can honestly say, it ain't all that bad. As you guessed, I got the less glamorous of jobs.
Fortunately I don't do anything really dangerous, they leave that up to the professionals.
They let me stay nice and safe on the carrier, so don't worry about me at all. Shore leave is nice to, no traffic jams on the frontier, and finding a parking spot is really easy.
Oh yeah, and tell Licia I want my datajockey back next shore leave home.
Love, and hoping to see you soon.
Your son,
Silic Geoff Vas.
