Good Morning!

Comment by diannep on November 2, 2014 at 7:30pm

I believe the train station is about 1/4 mile from RTC, but there are sidewalks. 

Comment by CatMom509 on November 2, 2014 at 6:59pm

trinityone,

You should be receiving at least an "I'm a Sailor" call from him after Battlestations and he can give you more info during this call, so hang in there!  He should be just finishing intense training and about to go into Battlestations during the next 2 weeks~

Comment by CatMom509 on November 2, 2014 at 6:56pm

To avoid waiting in the long line waiting to turn right into RTC off of Buckley Road, stay to the left of this line and go straight to the train station beyond, safely turn around there, then come back so you can now make an easy left turn to get into the RTC entrance.  Voila!!

For some who can't find their password, but still want to drive to PIR, you can also park at the train station for $1.50.  It is across the street from the graduation hall area, but I don't know exactly how far because I didn't do this myself~

I need help! I have not heard from my son for about three weeks. I am wondering what is going on can anyone enlighten me please?

Comment by meandap on November 2, 2014 at 5:11pm
I'm not trying to get anyone in trouble. I have faith and God will work it out. Thanks anyway
Comment by Maggie6523 on November 2, 2014 at 5:00pm

Ok. Just trying to help. I figured if they were staying at Navy Lodge that weekend they would have to have a recruit graduating and I would hand it in person to them which is hardly like giving it to a stranger. I know too well what its like to stress out cause your kid is not communicative. IS it true that there are long lines to get on base if you drive? I am stressing over having a 6 mos old granddaughter with us. My daughter is refusing to get on a shuttle with the baby without a car seat and we are not lugging the rental carseat into the PIR with us. Any suggestions? How far is Navy Lodge from base? If she straps the baby to her chest with the Baby Bjorn would that be safe?
