LOL he's usually very happy and smiling, I think he's trying to look "Army Strong" while taking his own pic on a phone.
You're not allowed to smile in an Army pic till you get older. The younger guys always take themselves too seriously. Just tell your son to eat what they feed him...
He'll make it through. You'll be surprised at how many letters you will get. Basic is a tough experience. It's a team effort though. He will gain a lot of confidence. Especially at that age. Basic is geared to 17 and 18 year olds. He'll be just fine.
