It's been a little while since I commented on here, but I wondered how everyone is doing. I hope everybody is doing well and will get to see their sailor. Doug is coming home for Christmas and we are really excited to see him.

My son's recruiter took him, put him up in a hotel and everything. I would say talk to the recruiter and get them to help. That's what they are paid for.

Recruits go to MEPS twice: to sign up, then again when they actually go to boot camp. Prospective recruits can drive themselves when they are just taking the ASVAB/looking for jobs, but more often the recruiter drives them there because the recruit…

Joanne,
Yes Jake is on hold. Likes it in Florida but says its really hot. Jake can't wait to come home over the holiday and see some snow. He says that he misses it already. He did say that after being in FL, he will probley think its freezing here in Pa. They all have to adjust to the climates they are in. I hope your son enjoys the cold weather,snow is very pretty. Tell him to go out and make snow angels for you. Ha,Ha. Jake is hoping he can do that when he comes home. Still a kid at heart, thats a good thing. Talk soon,

Hi Joanne, Sorry I did not get to meet you at the gathering before graduation. We were soo tired from our trip. Anyway, how is everyone doing? Jake is doing good down in Pensacola but still on hold for A school. He did class up though so he can wear civi's. He is so happy about that. What's been going on?

Hi Joann, Wanted to welcome you to AECF group - I've been on vacation so I'm a tad behind! Congratulations to your NEW sailor! Very big accomplishment -huh?! Is your son an ET or an FC? I know you've heard about the long holds and all I can say is ...let's hope they improve as the new fiscal year begins. Our son is an FC and just graduated from C school but he spent 9 months at A school...with no holds. Please let me know if you have any questions that we can help you with.

Nice to hear from you. Tyler is going to be a Gunner's Mate. On another note, Tyler said his NEX card he received at RTC was not any good at NEX on this base. They told him it was only good on RTC NEX. Tyler had appx $30-40 left on his card. Have you heard anything about this?

Hi there. Well we will be going up for graduation. Finally got the money together. Hope to see you at the meet and greet. Not sure how much that would cost us so we may not make that. Where are you staying up there? Thanks again for your help.

Hi there

We live in the mountains about 4 hours from greensboro...I got a SHORT letter from Joey today..I am a bit annoyed that I notice all the other div are getting phone calls this evening...He said in the letter they are firefighting and gas house this week and that they had had their pics taken...But that was it, said they have a guaranteed phone call Aug 3rd... Take care and look forward to meeting you guys.
