On 12/7/2020, my son got an email from the the coach asking him to call him. When my son called the coach, he got the news of the appointment offer. His AO called a couple hours later also advising him of the appointment offer. Love the personal touch! His Bear’s Den was updated with a formal letter on 12/9/2020. The letter included a link to an online form to be filled out indicating he was interested in accepting the appointment. And then today, 12/14/2020, he got the BFE!!! Absolutely thrilling! It’s been a long time since our family was so excited about a piece of mail.
