Hi~ everyone
My son is in div 087.
I got 2 letters from him yesterday.
He wrote those on 12/25 and 12/28.
His div got navy working uniforms and boots before Christmas.
The day .. All future sailors were first allowed to wear
the uniforms they supper excited and they ran to the bathroom
to look at themselves in the mirror.
The mention makes me smile.
And he got a chance to make a phone call on 12/27 but the phone
Card wasn't working. We know about this..so disappointed.
So the NEX(navy exchange) "made" them buy a $5 phone card for
The people who had the Same problem.
So everybody got in line at the nex which is attached to the
Telephone center to buy a new phone card but his petty officer said
he had to leave before he could buy one and call.. So sad.
But he and My family know we are gonna have to get used to it
With a career in the navy...
I wish he has a another chance soon. -

My son is in div 88. I heard from him a week ago on Saturday 12/27. I have received two letters in addition to the form letter. He seems to be doing really well. He's not too thrilled about being in an integrated division. (haha). He is the Yeoman for his division and seems to like that. He said he had done his fair share of pushups but was mentally and physically prepared for BC. It helps that his twin just went through it this fall. He will head to Pensacola after PIR.
