1Sailor/1Marine.....my daughter is in 023...MAN, I hope it wasn't her big mouth that got everyone in trouble!!!! lol
I need some advice! My fiance/ SR usually helped me make decisions, considering we were in it together. But idk what to do, and no idea when i can talk to him. My lease is up in our apartment on the 31st. and there has been some difficulty and i cant renew it. Some of my options include moving back in with my mother (same city) but i would be on the couch, in her two bedroom townhome with my sister and her two kids. Or i could move to ohio (i live in nc) and live with my Dad. My job is transferrable so thats not a problem. I have no children, (just a cat, which i would have to find a place for if i went to my moms) I dont know what to do. any advice?
Thank you, Bugsmama! I am so happy to have that letter, and have read mine multiple times, too. Relieved to know he is taking it in stride and feels confident he is doing well. He's in Div 023 and only mentioned his group getting on trouble once - for talking in the passageway. One hour of IT, said it was brutal.
I think they said 845 to about 7-8
an announcement for 30 NOV PIR: There will be FIFTEEN divisions graduating Nov. 30th. RTC is abiding by the policy that Active Duty/military retirees and children twelve and under do not count toward the 4 invitations each recruit receives. However, if an individual is not on the access list they will NOT be able to enter the drill hall (NO stand by). Please plan on arriving at least two hours before the ceremony, which begins promptly at 9 a.m. Thanks to all for your continued support of Recruit Training Command, the Navy's only boot camp!
I am not completely sure, and I have also not read the form so I could be wrong.. but you will definitely want to look into that because I was under the impression that you could only sign out one other SR of the same gender and division as your SR.
