DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

Hi Charlie! Got my first letter yesterday and let me tell you, it made my week! I missed out on the call home that most of you got over the weekend so the letter was awesome. My son sounded upbeat and said he was " scatterbrained" because he had gotten his first letter from home lol. He is sure making this mom proud! I hope your experience has been as uplifting!

Hi Ladies. My name is Samantha and my son is in Division 350. I received my first letter yesterday as well. He said the best part of the day is "chow." I can't wait to see him on the 31st. Are both of you going to the Meet & Greet on Thursday, 10/30?

What is a meet and greet? I thought I was reading a lot to not miss anything but I guess not enough. Lol
My son also said "chow" was awesome. He did say he misses home a lot too. -

I forgot to introduce myself! I'm Michele. I will be attending the meet and greet with a few other family members. I absolutely cannot wait to see my boy! We ought to arrange to find each other at PIR and sit together so our sailors can find us easily!
Charlie, the meet and greet is a dinner at a local grill. You can search Sarge's Meet and Greet on this site. It's a wonderful thing this couple does and you will learn a few inside tips for getting onto base, parking, etc. -

Good morning everyone!! My name is Eileen and I have twin daughters in this Div 349/350. I want to go to the meet and greet but our flight doesn't land until 6:30 pm so I don't know how long it will take us to get settled in hotel and Friday is an early morning! Would love to sit with this group at PIR!!

I got a call too! My first one since the "I have arrived" because he had watch when the first calls went out. I was shopping and had my hands full and when I saw the 847 area code, I got so excited that I have no idea where I dropped my things lol but I headed straight for the door so I wouldn't miss a second of hearing his voice. He sounds great and has ranked up already so my heart is swelling with pride.
Oct 31 can't get here fast enough!
I'm so happy for all of you that also received calls! -
