My son just left for BC at GL today. He will be heading to Pensacola after PIR, probably in January. How long is A school for the CTM program? We would like to visit him the spring or summer, just trying to get some idea on some plans. Excited that he is getting started, but really missing him already.

Just wondering if any of your sailors will be hosted for Thanksgiving this year. I don't know much about this and mine just got to Pensacola a couple of weeks ago. I'm sure he'll be fine, but thought it might be nice if he had somewhere to go. If anyone has information on hosting over the holidays, please let me know. Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving!

Shayna's mom....you will not know when your son's 'ship' date from GL will be until you get the packet from him...I believe it is about week4-5 the Grad packet arrives (or it was when my daughter was in BC). She had to leave early Sunday after graduation on Friday. Some leave a couple hours AFTERward, even though they had all been told they 'usually ship out to Pcola about Tues or Wed following PIR'....some do, but many do earlier (so they dont ALL arrive at the same time!).

Shayna's mom - My son just PIR 11/6 and we are still in GL 11/8. He was given liberty immediately following PIR on Friday and has been able to be out with us from about 7a - 7p over the weekend, too. They have taps at 8pm and it's a long walk back to their compartment, so 7pm return is safe. He said he may get some unofficial liberty on base tomorrow. If that is the case, we should be able to see him a bit at the NEX in the late morning. He is expecting to head out to Pensacola Tuesday and should get his orders tomorrow morning. We opted to come in Thursday night (staying in Gurnee at the LaQuinta which I highly recommend) and go home Tuesday night. I had been told early on that he should head to Pensacola 11/10, so just stretched it out just in case. I would probably have made the return for Monday, though if I had it to do again. Sounds like a possiblity of seeing him a small bit tomorrow, but nothing Tuesday. Standard caveats apply... :) This was what happened for us, but can't ever tell for all... There were lots of grad n go sailors and very grateful mine wasn't one of them! The weekend wasn't nearly long enough, but I'll gladly take it! I'm so proud of him and can't believe the changes in just 8 weeks. He's so proud and confident now. :)
