Good points about asking elsewhere and having a place to go the rest of the day. Hopefully the vetran members assigned to this group can help some. I'll let you know what I find out.

For all of you with Sailors flying out of GL, if you can stay through late Saturday do so. Your Sailors will leave in the wee hours of Saturday morning, but you can go to the airport, and wait with them until they leave.
For those with Sailors staying in GL, if you can stay until late Sunday or even Monday you will have the most time with your Sailor. They will have part of Friday after PIR and moving over to the TSC side with you. They will also have Sat and Sunday from approx 6am-10pm with you. Times can vary from what I posted, be prepared.

It's fun to see that you two, alabamatlab and Navymom, have sons in the same division as ours. I've seen your names since I started here on NavyforMoms. : )

We're so happy to have received our form letter and know the date of our son's PIR. Now I have a million questions. Well, quite a few anyway. #1 Our son will go to A school in Pensecola. Should we plan to stay at a hotel near RTC the night after PIR (Friday night) or move to a hotel in the airport?

Anyone's son or daughter Ship13 Div 233?

Hi!!
Welcome to your PIR group!
My son graduated BC in April of 2012. He is an ET, stayed in GL for A School, went to C School in San Diego. He has also had additional schooling and training since (an ETs learning is never done). He is forward-deployed and is attached to is a Whidbey Island-class landing ship.
A few other veteran moms will be joining to help answer questions, offer support, and give you lots of information.
There will also be lots of pages posted with information for you along the way. They will be posted as the subjects come up!
Remember there are no dumb questions, so ask away!
Fasten your seatbelts...the next few weeks will be a roller coaster ride, but at the end of the ride you are in for the best hug ever!!
