Meet & Greet - Attending? Which One?
There are now 2 Meet & Greets. Ramada and Sarge's. Would love to get a feel for what everyone is doing. Could you add which one you are going to, expected time, your Division and where your Sailor will be going to?

His Meet & Greet is from 5-10 and is for everyone...not just Nukes.
I'd love to hear some feedback from you guys on how it goes. My son's PIR is next week!
Congratulations to all of you and your Sailors!!!!!
