My son is Ship 14 Div 237...Anyone else??
Anyone have a child in ship 11/ div235 ?? PIR date 7/10/15
pat: They have hand sanitizers all over at Bootcamp and are to clean them lots!
diannep: Thank you so much for your encouragement to tell me not to worry so much about PFA and academics. Will keep praying and writing everyday !
Sorry to hear that many of the recruits in boot camp are sick. Please let them know when you write or speak to them to always wash their hands as that is best practice in infection control!
Hope all had a pleasant Memorial day weekend. Hope I have the opportunity for another call as I missed it this weekend!
Hello All!
"I will lift up my eyes to the hills--
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth."
Psalm 121:1-2
Finally... we just received his letter... Ship 2 Div 935 . Was so happy that he was able to call on Sunday, good to hear his voice. He sounded great and tired .
Good Morning!
*The run in the PFA is hard for some----and the swim (done just once) can be a challenge for some also.
Sorry, I sure messed up that sentence below in my post!
