    If he is going to boot camp you wont hear from him for at least the first two weeks. But, I would encourage you to write as much as possible the more the better for both of you. I was in the Army and it was very difficult for soldiers that had girl friends, especially new ones, if he doesnt get any letters then the other guys will tease him and tell him that Johnny is with you, so make sure he gets a letter during mail call. I was fortunate because i did not have a girlfriend when I went to boot camp. So it didnt really matter, but I really felt for the poor soldiers that were wondering what their gfs were up to.
