She did call them and they did not give that to her as a option. She was just told they would "take care of it" but of course they did not!. I am angry becuase it is advertised on the website as a place for families to stay!

Alot depends on who there trainer is. My daughter told me alot of division were able to contact their families more than her group was because her trainer believed it caused them to lose focus. ( Maybe true but it sure stressed MOM!!!)

bjsh57, that is awful, but I think hman66 has it right, maybe next time your daughter can sign you in PRIOR so if anything ever happens like this again you won't be in a bad situation. I am sorry for what happened to you.

So sorry to hear that happened....what a drag When my son was going through OCS in Newport last spring, he was allowed to go to the lodge and sign us in PRIOR to our late arrival (flight was arriving at midnight). FYI

Unfortunately, lodging on base is for military and retired military. Since you apparently don't fit in that category they had no choice but to send you away. It is horrible that your daughter was put in this situation. I have found it amazing that t…

Bootcamp graduation

Well it looks like Bootcamp graduation is only 2 weeks away and I have a Grad and Go? My question is can I bring her a present? Ipod? book to read on the plane? IF she is a Grad and Go will she be able to leave the base and go out to eat? Is there places on the base to take her to eat? What can you tell me to make this event more special for her?

My daughter is in bootcamp. Her husband just got out of the Army on disability. I found out last night that my daughter has been being physcially abused by her husband. What I need to know is there daycare available to soldiers wherever they are stationed at the hours they will need it?( I plan to confront my daughter with what I have found out and try to have some options available to her.)

Daughter called....

She spoke to her husband only had about 2 mins and she seemed real down!! He said it sounded like she had been crying. She said her graduation date has been pushed back by a week to Oct 30 due to taking longer to Process? Does that mean her whole group is delayed or... just her? What would cause a delay in processing?

Also,

What time does graduation get over? I will need to leave that afternoon after graduation is it usually over by noon?

Thank you for your help !

Pat,
My daughter will be a aviation ordianceman? I think she starts as a C2. I am concerned because I feel this is not a good job for her.... Maybe I am wrong ( I hope) . I am a nurse and was hoping she would get in Medical corp because she wants to be a nurse but they said there is no positions available....She is married and has a 1 year old... Her husband is army and has been to Iraq 2 times. he is getting out on medical due to injuries.... They like the military and she comes from military.. Her grandfather and grandmothers were officers and her uncle is Navy doctor.... I quess I am just a worried MOM wanting the best for my girl...

Welcome to Navy for Moms. My sailor is currently waiting for final orders to go to Hawaii. He is a sonar tech aboard a submarine. He's been in for a year now and I'm excited that he gets to go to Hawaii! You'll find a wealth of information here on this site. Along with Friendship, Support, Determination, Inspiration and good conversation! Have a Wonderful 4th of July and lets not forget why we celebrate it and how we preserve it! GO NAVY
