[D'smom]

That's Great!!!! I Know You Are Proud.

[NavyMomx2]

My son is in the same div/ship - I got no call - needless to say I'm extremly disappointed.

[Kristie]

Beckie....it is ok....some do not get to call if they have duty.....I am so excited for you.....yippie....in 3 days you can hug him and squeeze him and then get mad at him for not calling......lol

All is good!

[NavyMomx2]

Boy Kristie - I'm telling you, he better of had duty...or man is he gonna get a piece of his mother's mind. I waited all day yesterday! My heart sunk when I found out that others had gotten calls and I hadn't. I even called RTC to make sure he was still there - I'm sure the gal on the phone thought OMG what a worrysome mother! She assured me that he was scheduled to graduate on Friday and that she was glad to help - she even tried to find that division - but she said they must be practicing for PIR - I don't know if they really were but I know she was trying to make me feel better.

Hi Beckie,
I know how you feel. My son Jonathon called his Dad at work instead of calling me after Battlestations. It was the first call my husband received from him. Like you, I had kept the phone clear for two days and then my husband asked me if I'd heard from Jon. I almost cried but when he said that he'd called him, it was a great relief to know that he'd earned his cap. He did call me twice the next day so it worked itself out. I had even called his recruiter to see if he knew anything. I should've just called my husband - he had more information then they did.

[KYmom]

Sorry you didn't get the call Becky. But you know how boy's are.
Mine leaves in one hour, and I would bet money I won't get any calls, and will be lucky to get a letter. That's why I have questionairs already ready to send. LOL . . . .

[navy dad]

Yes my son called his girlfriend and talked for a 1/2 hour needless to say we did
not here from him.But his girly friend gave us the low down.

[navy dad]

Sorry you did not here from him but you only have a couple of days.Then you can
beat him.HAHA

[navy dad]

Does anybody know what color uniforms they were at graduation?

[navy dad]

One more question does anybody know if you can buy a video of the graduation.
And how to?

[Kristie]

They will be in Dress Whites.....so handsome.....

You can get a DVD of the graduation....he had the option of getting it with his pictures....but you can ask someone at graduation...they may have the info....

Sometimes after Battlestations they fall asleep in their food. Like when they were little.

[navy dad]

My son said he does not have school until aug 18th he said he might be able
to come home for awile. Whats the odds of that happening?

LOL- The good old days . . .

Odds are pretty slim....I have not heard of anyone getting to come home after BC.....there are guys waiting for their A school to start and have been on hold for 5 months waiting.....

He should get leave after he completes A school....where will he be going for school?

[navy dad]

In chicago I think they made him a E-2 Im very happy

[navy dad]

My son just called and talked to us for about one hour.It was so good to here his voice.When I found out it was him my mind went blank.All the questions I was going to ask him I forgot.WOW he got E-2 six out of 80 guys.Thanks for answering
all my questions you guys been real helpful.

[Kristie]

That is wonderful.....the greatest news about him having A school at GL is that the chances of you haing him the entire weekend with you is very high....we had Brandon all weekend as his A school was in GL but Jennifers was in Pensacola so we could only have her during the day.....

Have a wonderful time with your "Sailor"
