<p>Leah,</p>
<p>My son and another mom's son were in RCU at the same time and we chatted back and forth about the experience at <a href="https://navyformoms.ning.com/group/ship04div741/forum/topics/fractured-fibia-rcu-6-days-before-pir" target="_blank">https://navyformoms.ning.com/group/ship04div741/forum/topics/fractured-fibia-rcu-6-days-before-pir</a> .

<p>Leah,</p>
<p>My son and another mom's son were in RCU at the same time and we chatted back and forth about the experience at <a href="https://navyformoms.ning.com/group/ship04div741/forum/topics/fractured-fibia-rcu-6-days-before-pir" target="_blank">https://navyformoms.ning.com/group/ship04div741/forum/topics/fractured-fibia-rcu-6-days-before-pir</a> . In that thread we decided RCU is a lot like purgatory for our kids and us.</p>
<p>One thing I know for sure: if your son is determined enough he'll get to A school. He's going to have to endure a lot more than those who don't visit RCU but the experience will help him in the long run.</p>
<p>One thing that helped my boy was working as a yeoman in the RCU office. It's pushing papers but the routine and sense of doing <em>something</em> was the best thing he did while there. Tell your son to ask for a yeoman position. It's worth it for him.</p>
<p>Best of luck!</p>
