Katie didn't call when she arrived in Sasebo because the int'l phone card she had didn't work, but she did e-mail us the following day. My daughter is a DC on the USS Essex. Hard to know when they are actually writing since she is 13 hours ahead of us here in Michigan.

Yes, Judyann, it is his first duty station. I have been waiting all day, and no message.

My son went in with tatoos. Mostly a dragon and a wolf, but I'm sure he will want more.

Judyann - I would say it is more like 12 weeks. Katie did her indoc classes before Christmas break and then did the actual instruction starting in January . She was done by the end of March.

My son starts A school today at GL for DC. At least he has to report for indoc. How long will his school be? One person told him 9 weeks and another said 12 weeks.
