Son or Daughter in Ship 14 Div 393?

[memroy]

Does anyone have a son or daughter in Ship 14 Div 393 with a Graduation date of 13 NOV 2009?

[JLo]

Our son is unmarried and 22 years old, he has commented there are guys who are way too young with kids. I am glad he is single, it would be even more difficult to leave a family behind while at boot camp.

I heard from my son yesterday 28 Oct and he sounded very bummed out. He thinks boot camp "blows" because "our division (394?) is filled with a bunch of can't hack it rejects who don't give a f***k! and he can't wait to graduate . . . it just seems like our guys won't come together at all." He wrote to a neighbor that he feels "so demoralize. . . . hates it every time it seems to be getting better, we get compared to our brother division (395?) and sucks" I get the feeling he thinks his division 394 has a majority of males who have just stopped caring and that the girls suck at PT pretty much. S . o . o . o, that was all very disconcerting. I sounds very fed up. Has anyone else heard anything like this or about the other divisions in Ship 14 feeling bummed out and not working together?

My son is in ship 14 division 392 and every time I get a letter he says he loves it. All the guys he's with seem to care. Sorry to hear about your son's division

my daughter is in div 386 brother div 387 she said there the only group that gets to really talk to there brother div the other ones keep them as separate as possible and shes seems to really be loving it there.shes making good friends and all ready has a study group for A school.besides the fact she told me she has a stress fracture that she is sucking up it sounds all good a boy offerd to do her IT for her she said OH no boy could do her IT that if the pain got to bad she would fall out and take it from The rdc, but I talk to her since and she said that they havent had any more IT since then. that it seem like everyone was geting there act together.

My daughter is in ship 14 division 395 and she did mention something in a letter she sent to her boyfriend about alot of ppl failing their PT. I know this must affect the whole group. I understand the mindframe that they are trying to get everyone to work as a team. You know that you are only as strong as your weakest link, so they have to work together. All we can do is keep encouraging them.

my daughtr is ship14 div 386 she said that the boys that looked like they worked out the most cried like babies during the work outs shes said she couldnt belive it . but that was her first letter. she saids she never gets to work out because shes on watch every time they work out and shes glad when they get IT thats the only time she gets to work out and shes gain 7 pounds.in her first letter she told me the ripped bones from her face the next line was they pulled her wisdom teeth. for a second i was fliping out.she could have said that first

Dear civilian girl,

You complain that your boyfriend has worked late all week and have barely seen him.
-I look forward to the two weeks a year we spend together.

You complain because he doesn't call you enough.
-My heart is thankful for the 15 second phone call I got last Tuesday in the middle of the night!

You whine to your friends about how much you miss him already because he is on a two day trip with his parents.
-I won't see him for another 10 months!

You don't feel like making love tonight because you are too tired.
-We will stay up all night because we don't know when it will be the last time.

Your boyfriend belongs to you.
-Mine belongs to the government.

Your boyfriend is training for his game next weekend.
-My boyfriend is trained to kill.

It's just not practical for you to drive an hour to see him every weekend during school.
-He spends $700 dollars on a plane ticket just to see me 2 days!

You hate hanging up the phone when talking to him.
-My heart breaks because I won't talk to him for another 10 days.

You complain that he doesn't take enough time out of his life for you.
-My man has to get up in the middle of the night to talk with me because of the time difference. He doesn't complain.

Your man is in a bad mood from not sleeping much this week.
-My man ran 10 miles this morning at 4 in the morning and has a full day of
work ahead of him. He's lucky if he gets a few hours of sleep!

Your boyfriend can call in sick when he is tired or not feeling well.
-My man works no matter what!

You don't trust him so you follow him places to see if he is telling the truth.
-I have no choice but to trust him and even then I trust him with my life.

You don't like him talking so sexually with his friends.
-My boyfriend has to chant it in drills.

You check your phone, see you missed a call from him, and decide to call him back when you aren't so busy.
-I see a missed a call and cry, because I don't know when he can call again.

You might save a cute voice message from him.
-I save them all b/c it helps me to remember what his voice sounds like.

Being apart for a month to you seems daunting.
-A month apart for me is a wish that can't come true.

You wouldn't change schools to be close to him.
-I have to move to another country to be with him.

You have every part of him memorized.
-I study pictures so I don't forget what he looks like.

You take your time together for granted.
-We don't!

Your cell phone bill was high this month from talking too much.
-He pays 20 cents a minute to call me… when he CAN call.

You love that fancy necklace he bought you
-I refuse to take his dog tags off, and not a day goes by that I don't have them on...

You say you miss him.
-Times that by 100.

For all you girls who thinks that thier love life is so tough. Think again.
