Hey Craig, I just wanted to give you a heads-up for your deppers.
Something new is going on with recruits graduating and being held back at Great Lakes due to "anemia."

We've been alerted there have been 3 since yesterday that can't leave!!!! Please advise your deppers to seriously get into taking vitamins and/or eating a lot of red meat prior to BC to get their iron levels up. I cannot figure out why this is going on. Sounds like they have been doing blood draws on the recruits either right before or right after Battle Stations. This is a new 'thing', do you know about this or why they might have been doing this?

So guys, start taking those vitamins. One thing you don't want is to be stuck at RTC Great Lakes waiting for your iron levels to go up. It would totally suck. Vitamins are cheap... Start taking them....
