Susan, Most likely O'Hare, but you never know. Orders for school won't be given to your recruit until sometime in the last couple weeks of BC.

Comment by Susan on May 30, 2015 at 6:49am

Does anyone know what airport they fly out of to go to Groton CT -  A school. 

Comment by ChristineC on May 30, 2015 at 6:36am

alabamatlab-Yay for a letter! So glad he sounds good. Our sons (Navymom too) might have been in church together as well as sharing a division : ). ellen0502-Thanks for the good advice/insight !

Deep breath ladies. It is not unusual to hear "depressing" things from your recruits at this point. The first couple of letters home  are always the hardest. They go through highs and lows, and might even have "felt" better an hour after they mailed the letter to you.

They are in the "tearing down" process right now, and just about anything they do will feel like it is done wrong. About week four of training things all of the sudden are 100% brighter for them. The division is coming together, they have made friends, emotionally the settle in, etc.

Breathe deep ladies, it is all good, I promise!!!!

This is his first time away from home he said the first time he really knew what to do is when he went to church. Thankful for that. Just praying by the time I talk to him again he's in better spirits.he wrote this Sunday.

Pray for me ladies I just got a letter. I can't stop crying I want to go get him!!
Comment by ellen0502 on May 29, 2015 at 6:37pm

diannep, I did sleep very well. It was interesting to talk to him while he was in the well deck of the ship, some very interesting noises in that vast area. :)
