I got a call on Sunday too! It was SOOOO good to hear from him! It's been 2 weeks today since he left. Time seems to be dragging for me. My SR sounded great and he seems to be adjusting well.

I got my hotel, we have a lot of Doubletree points and the nearest Doubletree was 12 miles away. So we aren't super close, but not terribly far away! Still have to get plane tickets.

We booked Navy Lodge last night. Can't beat the price!! Mr son said heads friends with an SR from Corpus Christi, TX. We are from Fort Worth so they had some common ground. He sounded really good! Said he might get to call this weekend too!!!

Does anyone know if our SR will come home for a few weeks after graduation? My son was under the impression that he will come home after graduation for 2 weeks. The recruiter told him that he will work in the office with him for about 9 days and then after 2 weeks he will go to A school...The letter we received in the mail indicated just the opposite...does anyone know how this works?

I haven't heard of this. I wish- my oldest son is getting married 07/04 and we were told our SR would go straight to A school right after graduation. He could then inquire about leave once be got there but it wasn't likely he would get it. That would sure be great if they got leave after PIR!

I know Niks recruiter told him he would work with him for 9 days of the 2 weeks he was home but maybe things have changed...was hoping he would be home for a family reunion. 7/04...It sure would be great if they could come home before A school...

Our SR is going straight to A school from GL. He gets to come home for 2 weeks after that, October-ish. He will be working at the recruiter's office too. He's looking forward to that!
