Welcome, socalmom21~~

Comment by CatMom509 on November 22, 2014 at 1:51am

Hey everyone, I want to give you a "HEADS UP" to be prepared to receive calls from your SRs this weekend!  The call will show up as "847",  "Waukegan, IL", "Pay Phone", or "Government" or anything else that may be unfamiliar.  If it is a sales call, just politely tell them "No, thank you."  Please also let your family members know about this too~~

During this time in Boot Camp, please keep your cell phones charged, ready, and with you all the time---upstairs, downstairs, out in the backyard, in the bathroom, out to get the mail, of course, out on errands.  If you are going to a loud restaurant or a movie theater, remember to put it on "vibrate" and put in your pocket or some place you can feel it.  They can call during the week or weekend, so just be prepared:  6:00 am - 6:00 pm (West Coast); 8:00 am - 8:00 pm (Great Lakes time); 9:00 am - 9:00 pm (East Coast).

Hello everyone, it's nice to meet this group. I'd like to thank you all in advance for all the support and helpful information I've read. Our family has had military men who served many years ago and now this experience is very real with our son. He son swore in on 11/6 in San Diego and arrived at GL on 11/7.  We spoke to him the same evening and received his box the following week. He called home yesterday and we also received his letter with PIR info scheduled for 01/09/15, Ship 03 Div 051. Wow! What an incredibly blessed and bittersweet month thus far.

Hello jennifer33486.
Are you going to see your daughter for Christmas as well?
Comment by diannep on November 21, 2014 at 10:11pm

Very common to write the names like that, willsmom.  They "fix it" a week before PIR!  My son did the same thing when he was up there!

Welcome to the new members of the group!

Looks like jenngga has a SR training with yours, willsmom!

Welcome to the group, NavyDad.  We are always happy to welcome the men over here!   Please ask any questions you may have and one of us will be happy to answer!

I finally got my son's letter also. It confirmed ship 11 div 055, PIR 1/9/15. Like some of the other young people, he invited Mom, Dad, Andrew, Aunt Kathleen. Thank goodness he gets another chance at that.
Comment by jenngga on November 21, 2014 at 7:35pm

Hello everyone!  The letter finally came today! My son is on Ship 11, Division 055 or 056.  Excited to have this first information!

Comment by NavyDadVA on November 21, 2014 at 6:53pm

My son is in Ship 03 Division 051.  Glad to be part of the group!
