The clock is a great idea. I will have to do that when my son leaves.

Kelly...he is doing great and excited to be coming home for the holidays. Yes, he is able to get off base now, they changed the phases about the time it hit for him to leave base and have weekend liberty. He said "It figures". I think last weekend w…

We talked about Adam wearing his home. He said he might but his pants were beginning to get tight in the waist. HA! Guess he is finally putting on a little weight, he was always so skinny. As much as I would love to see him come down the cooridor in…

OMG Becky, my son is in the first pic. Even though I have several of these and look at them quiet frequently, it still brings tears to my eyes each time I see them. Can't believe they will be home in a few more days.

Kelly....thanks for all the pics you post. I was just thinking this morning that it feels like PIR again with our Sailors coming home for the holidays. My son pics orders Tuesday so when he comes home, he will know where he is going after A school,…

Margaret, this is Pearl Harbour Day so it probably had something to do with that.

Oh yea, almost forgot after reading all the post. Talked to my son a little while ago and he said it is snowing in GL. May not seem like much to some that live in the north and see it every year but we live in the south and it is rare to see snow.

boot camp and church

Our son recently went into the Navy and is in his 3rd week of boot camp. We received a surprise phone call from him and were so happy to actually get to speak with him and hear he was doing great. His and our only concern thus far is that he said there was not a Baptist Church on the base for him to go to. I told him he needed to double check with his officer about the services. Does anyone know if there maybe a Baptist Chaplin on base that has services.

Thank you,

Cheryle,

I just read the news PRAISE THE LORD HE PASSES. I have tears of joy for you and your son. We also will be leaving Wednesday morning about 0600 from upstate NY. I shall see you on Thursday at the meet and greet. Then I will give you that big hug.

Cheryle,

Hang in there !!! Keep us updated? Does he go back through tomorrow night?

Cheryle, That is awesome to hear that your son has a strong faith in God. Two verses that I had sent my son are Philippians 4:13 and Jeremiah 29:11. I also sent him the lyrics to the song Voice of Truth by Casting Crowns with bible verses.
My God wrap his arms around you.

hi cheryle,
i would think that would be fine, people have expressed interest in ordering, so go ahead and put up info((i'd put in a comment and then put info in a discussion on our group)) that way it will be easy to find.

Thanks for all the info. It does look like he is in the first group. So you think I will be able to bring him a few things from home for his room? From what I understand, they are more like dorm rooms. I guess I could always bring them and if he can't have them, take them back home.

The following divs aftr the first two have to wait in BC until usually that Wed to be moved or sent to their schools. I say your son is lucky because he will have the luxury of having you there to give him his personal items (cell, laptop, shampoos he likes, deodarant, boxers, etc). You then can help him shop at the Nex for items he needs - black backpack, iron, etc. Nothing has to be shipped. Well his civvies have to be. We brought him comfortable clothes for the hotel rm. and boxers. Hope I have answered some of your questions.

Okay it looks like your son is in the first div which means you (he) hit the jackpot!!! As I said the first two are grad n go. He will be moved over to school on the same day as grad. AFter grad they have short time with family and then go back to room. They have packed bags night before and bus is there to take them "across street". In my son's case the bus was late, etc. We were waiting in the hotel rm complaining how unfair everyone gets their Sailor and it is almost 5 pm Well he finally called us on his cell and told us to pick him up. What had happened was he had to settle in (throw his bag in his new rm) get debriefing and he was free to be with us the whole weekend until Sun pm. Blissful after BC (lol) for him and me!! hahaha

Hi - my son is in GL A School Corpsman grad 9/11 (can't believe how the time is flying!!!). Saw your message and wanted to ask if your son is in the first two divs he most likely will be called grad n go.
