DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Ignore the idiots. Please join your PIR group. Since your daughter left just this last week, I'll bet her PIR date will be on 09/30/2011. Please hook up with this group. Click on the link below. When you get your form letter, it'll tell you. If it turns out her PIR date is before or after, no harm done you can always join the 09/23/2011 group or the group that will be formed for 10/07/2011.
PIR: Sept 30, 2011 TG 46
PIR: Sept 23, 2011 TG 45 - Divisions (315-320 & 945)
BTW, please join the New Moms Stop Here Click on the Pages located just underneath the member photos. You'll find an example of the form letter. Please watch the videos and review the info in the survival guide.
Good luck. Welcome to Navy For Moms.

Boy, I totally enjoy debates with people like this... I enjoy crushing them.
Tell him that he must not understand that you have a daughter and she is missing the "equipment" to go f^ herself... On the other hand, you being a guy, you possibly could... Never mind, because your head is so far up your @ss, it's blocking the possibility.

Trying to pretend she is on vacation at first. second week has past and cant pretend anymore. Her boyfriend got the forum letter, her box and the first call. Young love. I can here her voice saying,"mom you have to let me grow up." she will always be my baby. her bf did take a copy to my parents and they sent a copy to me. got it today. they say letters are gold to them? works both ways.

sorry took me so long to reply I know those letters are golden we got a few from our daughter I love her and miss her .She graduates soon excited and nervous both taking a train to chicago (nervous)
we come from a small town of 700 but it will all be worth being nervous once I get to see my Strong indepent young woman. Yes she will always be my baby girl though. I never knew how hard it was going to be to write letters I write and wanna tell her to come home right now I miss her and I know I cannot do that. We just have to remember that they have choose a life that is positive and that is something to be proud of.
