Hi everyone, my son first started at Boot Camp on June 20th and was in a 900 Division; four weeks after being in BC he was sent to Ship 5 (the separation ship) due to an "eye" condition. My son filed a medical waiver with JAG and then my husband and I filed a congressional inquiry on behalf of my son. We were able to do this because the days before my son left for BC I drew up a Power of Attorney and had it notarized; that made it possible for us to start the inquiry process since he was in separation. To make a very long journey and story short, my son's medical waiver was overrode in August by his CO and then he had to wait an additional 4 weeks for the Admiral to sign off on his medical waiver. This was definitely a roller coaster ride for my son and us, but thru it all my son never doubted that he would be able to remain in the Navy and instead of graduating on August 17th, he now will be Graduating on October 5th! How excited do you think we all are!!!!! Just wanted to post this for any parents/spouses who may have sons/daughters waiting in Ship 5 for any kind of waiver and tell them to just hang in there....it was definitely worth the wait!
