Littleangel, I have a Sailor finishing DC school in GL.  He has maybe 5 more weeks.

My son still has 5 weeks of BC left but wanted to ask if anyone's sailors went to boot camp listed as a seaman or an airman and then found out in BC they were switched to the other? My son thought he would do A school at Great Lakes and was just told he would be leaving the day after PIR for Pensacola instead. We are very confused.

@Riptide,

Son will be going to C school in Texas, where he is at but he might have to get off base housing if they don't have enough room for him.  So that will mean getting a car and added expenses but he still don't know and he is to graduate on 7/25 and be back at school around 8/2 so would like to see him in between...after C school then 6 months of clinical s where he doesn't know...etc...more of the same....hurry up and wait...

@ Carol,

   It really is frustrating, isn't it? LOL   Yes, my son is up for leave on 7/15 and we've only recently found out when he can leave. He does know when he's going to have to report for duty at his ship after leave, but apparently they have to go through the Navy in order to get their flights home and then to their ship. As for my son, he will not be able to make those travel arrangements until a couple of days prior. It's really frustrating, because he has to pay for his flight home and even though he "knows" when he's done in GL and discharging, he couldn't book his flight early in order to save money. Frustrating!  My hubby wants to take a week of his vacation time, if possible, while son's here, but the up in the air stuff makes it hard to plan! :-(

I am trying to get the word out about Cincinnati Navy week and asking if there is any mom, wife, girlfriend, sister, etc that would commit to coming to a breakfast downtown with one of the higher ups for breakfast and time to answer questions.  The date is set for Thursday morning Sept. 1.  Anyone interested?

A School @ Fort Sam Houston, TX.....my son should graduate on July 25th and would like to use leave to come home...but he is telling me he can't get any information on when and how to make arrangements and he get no answers....I think he just doesn't know who to ask....any advice on what I can do or tell him would be so helpful.....Thanks

My Kelly is in A school in Gulfport, Ms, she has been there since April. I don't hear from her very much. She stays really busy. She can use her phone now though. I text her every few days or so., sometimes only on the weekends. I don't want to bother her too much but I really do miss her a lot.  Kelly's mom
