So Rothman came up on deck today. He said that he dropped by since he was at his sponsors after a rough week at IOC. Brett and I had fun catchin up with what he's been doin since May. He told us that he's heading out to 3rd Battalion, 4th Marines (I think) out in 29 Palms. Pretty sweet, he's in a class of like 85 guys for IOC, which he said is like 30 more than usual. Big demand for platoon commanders right about now.
