Bubweena - so glad you are feeling better and your SR finally got some letters.  Maybe just before BS he will get the other 27 letters and have the best morale for getting through the test :-)

THANK GOD !! We got letters from my son today. Totally unexpected, but he finally got some of our letters. He only got like 3 or 4 out of about 30. But he feels so much better. I am so glad he got them during hell week giving him some much needed support. He is really nervous about the tests but he has gotten perfect scores on everything so far!! I can't tell you how relieved I am, it appears as if all our letters from Christmas week until Jan 6th are still MIA. He got 2 letters on the 6th and then 1 on the 10th. I went out last night and got my first blue candle and burned it last night it made me feel good. Thank you ladies for putting up with all my stressed out rantings. Looking so forward to seeing him. Still lighting my candles to help him get through battle stations. I know he is nervous about it.

Diannep: when they arrive at A-school and get put on hold, do you know if they have liberty during that time or are they locked down in the base doing other duties?

djksmom:  Was that the one whose husband called and had not taken the swim test?  She said that oddly, he hadn't failed it but never took it.  Weird since that is done towards the beginning of bootcamp, but sounds like maybe he had appt elsewhere on RTC when his division did it and in an oversight, they didn't realize he never did it until the end.  He has a chance to pass the swim part today and still be at PIR on Friday.  Hope he makes it!

Jamie, I friend requested BattleStations info to you.  Don't hit ACCEPT or the message goes away.

Yes, stop mailing letters a week before PIR...or at least copy them and take copies to PIR in case they aren't received.  They supposedly forward to A School though.

They normally don't get mail on graduation day, I don't believe, but should up until then.

jaxmom:  The final PFAs for them probably are this week, possibly Monday of next week for some.
