Those that are not adopted out with a Family will go to local organizations (Churches, Clubs) who will provide Thanksgiving meals for them.

Will every SR be adopted for thanksgiving? I can not go down to Chicago so was wondering if my boy will be alone. That makes me sad if he will be and all the other SR will have someone.

Looking for the parents of a "Paul" on Ship 04 Div 038. I am not sure if you are on this site but I would like to talk to you. It looks like I will be adopting him for Thanksgiving and thought you could send a care package I could surprise him with. If you are out here. Please private message me with last name to confirm for privacy reasons.

Barbie: Yes, you can send him a pre-addressed/stamped manilla envelope to mail the letters home in. Many have done this in the past. He may have to open it in front of the RDCs but he is allowed to have it.

Yes, many in the past were caught with no insurance because they had dropped theirs when they entered bootcamp and then they were discharged...instantly had no coverage. So it is best to keep them on your plan if they are on there through Bootcamp.

Barbie (tommy's mom) Thank you for checking into the live stream at the Navy Lodge. I am staying there and my two sons will be watching. I can now check that question off my list!

Navymom. I work for a large health insurance company. You cannot get in trouble for having double coverage. There is a order for which one pays as primary. Tri care starts as soon as they are in boot camp. Although I was told to keep her on my insurance until she graduates. Just in case something happens and she is discharged.

Great question bug5280! I'm piggy backing off your email.. I too have the same inquiry. Thanks! :o)

Just got off the phone with Navy Lodge...if you are staying there, they show the live stream on 2 televisions for those who can't attend PIR. Thought I'd share. :)
