He said he was "corrected" a few times already, once for calling a female training instructor "sir" instead of "ma'am" (oops!!). It's hard to imagine someone else yelling at him (just kidding!) Today will be his first official day at training and this morning they are supposed to do the Crossing of the Blue Line, which you can check out on a video here .

However, I am feeling slightly out of my league as a lawyer. Everyone here is very smart and they are very good lawyers. I sometimes strugg...
