Thank you for that information. I don't want to bother you asking so many random questions, but I'm not sure where else to get the information. So I'll ask these lol and then be done.
Okay. So how is seating setup? Is it first come first serve?
Was the first letter sent home from RTC, considered the grad pack, or should I be expecting something else?
Are we able to take pictures of the graduation? I have read normally there are no outside pics permitted.
Thank you in advance for you input. : ) -

Welcome proudSRmom! I hope I give you the correct information: I believe seating is 1st come 1st serve. The grad pack sounds like the form letter we receive. You should have got it a week or so after he left. It is to my understanding that we will be allowed to take pictures of the PIR. I know it is a lot of I believe and I thinks...sorry! I'm sure someone from this group will correct me if I'm wrong...lol

Hey everyone!
For some reason I am having a really hard time following this thread. I'm pretty sure my husband would tell me it's because I think backwards..but that's a different story.
Anyhow, has anybody heard from our recruits lately other than the weekly (very vague) letter? I was thinking battlestations should be this week, but it's Thursday night and I haven't heard a word, so I must be a week off.
We're almost there!!!--I know we're counting the days, but I would venture to guess our sailors are counting the minutes.

My son said he was the tallest in the group and sure enough, he is easy to spot.
