My husband spoke with my son's recruiter today, and he highly suggested we families start on the Airborne before we go down for graduation and have plenty for our new Marines.  He also suggested having plenty of Mucinex on hand.  That creeping crud just keeps cycling.  

My son was sick a few weeks ago, and another recruit we know in another company said his entire platoon was coughing up green gunk.  So, I think I'm going to start pounding the Airborne and get a hazmat suit to wear down there!

Good idea!!  I think I will add the Mucinex and Nyquil to the "things to take to San Diego" list. If not for us, then for Zack. He has complained about pink eye and a cough he has had since he got there. Hope he is doing better by now.
