I have a question for the navy moms who have been here for a while. My son arrived in P'cola on 11/9. He told me today that he didn't get to phase 2 while most of the guys who got there the same day did get to phase up today. Also some that arrive...

Profile Information

About me:
My name is Nichole ! I am a Navy fiance' ! My boyfriend's name is James ! He is currently in Pensacola, FL for his A school ! We have been together for a year and a half ! I am from St. Louis, MO ! I hope to make friends on here with people who are going through what I am currently going through !
I am here to support or represent my:
James
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I:
Was concerned or afraid, Was proud, Encouraged him/her
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
To take this experience one day at a time because if you don't it will overwhelm you ! And also to keep your phone on you at all times because you never know when they will get to call you and hearing their voice is just amazing !
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
Our relationship has grown stronger, This was a maturing experience
James -
I am so proud of all that you do and all the goals and dreams that you have achieved ! I have to say that I found that special someone with you and I couldnt ask for anything more ! This experience is a learning experience for both of us and I pray that we can make it through it and be stronger than ever ! I love you so much ! You are my best friend ... My boyfriend ... And also my hero ! I love you baby ! Keep reaching for the stars !

Love you like crazy !
Nichole <3

Is It True ... ? Question About Memorial Day Weekend !

Hey everyone ! I was wondering if anyone knew if it was true that if you are a Phase 2, you are allowed to come home on Memorial Day Weekend !? My boyfriend said that it was a rumor floating around his A school in Pensacola and he is trying to find out if that is true or not ! So I figured I would ask on here to see if anyone has a sailor that knows for sure or if your sailor has already been through the Memorial Day Weekend holiday in the Navy ! Let me know if anyone knows anything ! Thanks ...… Continue

A School

So I woke up yesterday morning to James calling me at 6am saying that he was at the airport on his way to Pensacola, FL ! He said that Tuesday night before he went to bed they gave him the heads up that he would be leaving tomorrow ! He had to be up at 3am to go to the airport and had a layover in Georgia ( He called me when they landed ... about 11:50am ) and then finally they flew into FL ! I didnt hear from him again until 9:45pm last night ! He let me know that he was allowed his cell phone,… Continue

My Trip To Chicago For Bootcamp Graduation !

I just currently went to Chicago for my boyfriend James's bootcamp graduation ( 4-18-08 ) ! We had so much fun ! I was so excited to get to see him ! He had liberty all weekend ( no overnight liberty ) for pretty much all day on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday ! We went to the Navy Pier on Saturday for a while and grabbed a bite to eat ! The traffic trying to get to Chicago that day was awful ! The hotels near the base are not what the descriptions hype them up to be ! I stayed at the Days Inn and… Continue

see him graduate =)
At 11:20am on June 4, 2008, LARiSSA said…
oh okay.

yeah, i'm so glad he gets the whole weekend off cause
some of my friends, their boyfriends went into the navy
too and right after PIR they have to ship out!

i'm doing good.
i've gotten two letters so far.
i should get my third today.

and i got a call from him yesterday
and missed it!
=(
so i'm a little upset about that.

Ok, well I actually just got my first phone call from him on Tuesday :). It was the best 10 minutes of my life...i'm pretty much certain! Lol! Well, at least until the next call! He said that he has been getting them now, that he got a bunch at one time. He actually got a letter that I sent last Wednesday, so that's less than a week, so that's Really good :) I am just counting down the days now!! How did it work after BC. Steve had mentioned before he left that he may have 1-2 weeks and he was told he would be able to fly home for a few days, get his laptop and phone, and then just be down in San Antonio by the start of A school.....I haven't heard anything about anyone else doing that really.....maybe one or two people, then again, he isn't going to FL like most of the navy guys it seems......hmm...i wonder.....

Hey, so I was curious. When James was at BC, did he ever say that he wasn't getting your letters? Do they eventually catch up to him at BC, b/c my b/f sent me 5 letters in one envelope, and in every one he was telling me how he hasn't heard from me and that he's worried and that he thinks I don't care about him or his feelings. What is going on!??!

My boyfriend, Steve, just left for Navy bootcamp at GL on May 1st. His Mom and I text a lot, and I get to go to his graduation. My worry is that he is going to change...lose his sense of humor.....idk...just not be the man I fell in love with. What's your take on this??

Hi Nicole,
I too just got back from Pensacola last Sunday. I went to see my Son (Navy), SIL (Navy) my daughter, grandbaby and DIL.
We had a great time.
There was no lock down for the sailors while I was there, however they do have to have a buddy to sign out with when leaving the base because a Sailor went missing a few weeks ago and he has not been located.
I really can't suggest any place to stay at because I stayed with my daughter and Dil in their apartment that they rented up there while the guys are in their A School.
Try to make sure that you get to the beach while you are there. Pensacola Beach is beautiful.
Best of luck to you and your Sailor.
