Hi there, My son is on there as well. No letters today hoping tomorrow we will hear from them. Cara
Hi! Our son is in Ship 13, Div 007, and we're from CA. We can't make it to PIR, so we'll be up at the crack of dawn to see it streamed live!
Monkey's family, My son is in the same ship/div as yours. We are also from CA. We are going to PIR. What is your son's name? There is already one boy whose family can't make it that is joining us after PIR for the rest of the day maybe your son can join us too. I am expecting a call from my son on Tuesday I will ask him. Maybe it is your son that is already joining us.
Monkey'sFamily, I am sure you are not the wicked step mother. I get it though. My ex-husband (also my son's ex step father we were only married 2 years) Is going with me and my son's girlfriend. His real father has not written him or anything. He is too jealous of the ex step father.
Also, my son only mentioned once that 007 was having a couple problems he didn't sound urgent about it though. His girlfriend got a call last week about the names lists and he said he will be making the I am a sailor call next week so it sounds like they got it worked.
The web address for the live feed is http://navylive.dodlive.mil/ starts at 8:45 am central time.
I have sent a request to join the facebook group but don't understand what look in the "other" folder means for the confirmation.
Hello families of div 007 and 008. My son is in div 007 and we are from the Pacific Islands known as the Northern Mariana Islands (Saipan). My son was recruited from the Navy in the island of Guam (our neighboring island).
Hello! Have you heard from your son?
Yes, he called Saturday morning. Received the form letter yesterday too. Waiting for the box.
Azerin, my son left on 9/18. Not sure what you mean by push, but he did not mention anything about waiting a few more days for more recruits.
Yes, I am so excited! Are you?
