Will I Be able to see my wife after Bootcamp for the weekend duri PIR???

Hello, if my wife will be a Grad N Go, will I still be able to go up on friday to see her graduate and still be able to hang out with her during the weekend? or does Grad N Go usually mean she will be leaving right after the graduation on a flight to Pen. Florida? I would love to go down there and get to spend the weekend with her but i'm not sure what to do... also.... how hard is it to get a hotel room about a month or so before graduation??? are their rooms or are they usually booked up if your not early? Hope someone can help... THANKS!

You'd have to get that information from your wife. Only she knows what time her plane leaves for Florida.
The ceremony is worth the trip, though.
Hay, yeah! believe me I would love to be able to go there. I just really would love to know if I could stay with her for the during the course of the weekend. I guess I'll just have to wait till she writes and gives me the whole scoop on things :)
ya usually she will leave the next morning, wat is ur wifes job i can finf out 4u 4 sure, i live here in gl.
also as far as hotels u can usually still be okay if u book it 2 weeks in advance or ten days b4 u should b okay, some hotels u can try...
navy lodge recomend 2 weeks notice
super 8 motel 7 day notice
motel 6 also same thing
redissance inn same
She is abh or abe, and will be going to pensicola for 6 weeks... does that help?
so there is no way of really knowing... I'm going to get a ticket from Thursday night until Saturday evening just to be on the safe side then. What do you think?
Also you have to remember she will have to go back to base everynight by 8pm. ZThey are only released for a couple of hours a day
Yeah, that's what I'm hearing.. I got tickets anyway for the whole weekend and will be there!
My boyfriend will be graduate on June 4 and he said he will have a liberty pass on saturday and sunday but he needs to be back at boot camp before 10pm.
Hi kisses, yeah... my wife said the same thing! Let's see what happens, I got hotel for the weekend anyway! Omg, I'm so excited!!! What ship and division is your man in?
my boyfriend's ship 07 and division 205..He is a guidon on his divison.
You can see her graduate, but as far as I can tell if she's a Grad-n-go she will leave soon after that. I have heard it could be 20 minutes or a few hours before they board the plane. But I also heard some where that you can get a special pass to be able to sit with her until she boards the plane. Try calling her recruiter to see if he can give you any more help.
