I'm not sure if I could attend the PIR. I have to review for my NCLEX exam and I'm coming all the way from GUAM. And my boyfriend does not want me to spend a lot for a plane ticket. But still hoping to go. Will be keeping my fingers cross. =D

Toni: Your son and my boy friend have the same division. I finally received a phone call from him today. I've been reading your posts and he was like how did you know about the flag thing, and that his division was grad n go. Thanks for all your blogs. They helped me know what was going on, and somehow felt a little closer to him.

I know - he was telling me in a letter that there are 88 people in his division. He said they're really nice. My husband's name is Bobby- i'll see if he knows your son when I send my next letter. I'm so excited for graduation I know when I get up there i'm not going to be able to sleep at all. I'm just curious as to how our 1 year daughter is going to react when she finally sees her daddy after 2 months.

Anyone know anything about "Grad & Go" ... Is it based on a division or individual sailor? Because I really don't want him to be that... The letters don't come fast enough to answer my questions. I've recieved 4 calls and 5 letters so far but in his last letter he said there was alot more to come. Should I send stamps? Also what is everyone wearing to graduation?
Sorry about all the questions :)

I have only recieved 1 letter and no phone calls. I am disappointed right now in my son.

Well got my first letter finally. He says at the rate his division is going they are going to be the strongest division. I guess they keep getting in trouble. He says BC is easy up until they mess up. Then they get extra IT (intense training). Well I guess I better go respond to the letter.

KellyB,
As straight of a face as he could. Then he would get a smart a.. smirky look on his face. You would just want to knock him out.

KellyB,
My son did tell me right in front of my husband and his recruiter that he was not going to write or call. They both looked at him and the recruiter said to him "YOU WILL WRITE AND YOU WILL CALL YOUR MOM OR THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENSES". lololol Then he proceeded to say to me "LOVE YOU MOMMY". Which is what him and his brothers always say to me when they are screwing with me. Don't ask me how I have made it this far with 4 boys. UGH!!!!
