Children under 12 don't have to be on the access list but will have to have ID. Like a birth certificate. They do not need to be on the list and are not counted as one of the four. Children older than 12you must be on the list and will be counted as 1one of the 4. -

My daughter is going to Pensacola for A school. She is so excited.
I have heard from her several times, she is doing great but a little sick. She says they all are but pushing through
I have never been more proud in my life. I knew she was a tough girl but she its telling me that boot camp is awesome. She loves the challenges. But what I wanted to share most of all is her respect for her shipmates and leaders. She says they are facing everything together and THAT makes me happy! Sounds like her division has become really tight and she has already made lifelong friends. She is a singer, so she LOVES coming up with the cadences. For Halloween she had them all marching to a “Thriller” cadence! LOL
I also want to say THANK YOU to the young lady in her DIV taking her home for Thanksgiving. We are in Northern VA and can’t make it to see her.
I can’t wait for graduation!!! What proud parents we will all be!

I am in such a dilemma. All the grandparents want to come! My husband and father are both retired Veterans, they don't count towards the 4, so the 4 would me myself, my mother, mother-in-law and my son who is 13. That means my father-in-law cannot attend the graduation. :(

Only 2 of us are getting to come for my daughters graduation. I wonder if we can give our other 2 seats away. You could have one if you wanted.

Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. Unfortunately, that is a big No No. My In-laws decided not to come after all, so the dilemma resolved itself. :). Thanks again,

Hello, I am 2fast4u, my daughter will be graduating with this division and wanted me to connect with other parents who loved ones are graduating also. I've been sending messages and don't really know who's getting them. I'm having a hard time understanding this website.It seems to be so busy, i'm not sure if I sending a message or adding a group. It appears that I've joined Navy for Moms on Facebook, this group, which this is the group my daughter is graduating from and only Gods know what else:-). My daughter mentioned to me that there were some photos being posted about their group and something about a fun survey I can print and send to her. Do anyone know anything about the photos and survey? please forgive me if i'm in the wrong place, but i'm fumbling through. Have a great day! Hope to hear from you soon. Take care.

did you find them? If you go to facebook you have to join the group in order to see them. I think there is a link somewhere in here. There was a PIR last friday and lots of SR from graduating day 11/30/12 are on the FB page. There are actually 3 FB pages that have pics.
