Its hard for you just like it is for me but think about it we are always waiting for any calls possible so its like we are still waiting. The people I talked to that are in the Navy told me that after battle stations it is like a breeze for them and they could probably be able to call the next day .

NewNavy -- If I do not get a call after "BS" - I will be a nervous WRECK! How can we stand the suspense?

Oh you can get them anywhere -- Dollar General, Walmart, just anywhere. I have seen some posts about electric blue candles. I have not seen any of these. You can also google "blue candle" and find pics on the web. Like my profile pic. I have changed all profile pics to Blue Candles.

where is a good place to buy blue candles?

No Terry not bad mom - good advice!
My SR did write in his letter dated on July 2, that Battlestation would be in 12 days. This would make it July 14th for Ship 12, Div. 231. Blue candles already burning.

I know a couple of people who are in the navy and they all told me some people do not make a call right when battle stations ends so they will sometimes not call at all .
-
-
I was wondering the same question ... My letters take 3 days to get there
-
-
i will just wait for the call 17 and 18th, when do they stop writing letters or when should i stop so they can get them it takes 5 days to get his
