DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

Okay Moms, I need to understand something.  Just got off the phone with the Bobster and he said that he had a W-2 for 2010 from the Navy.  His first direct deposit wasn't until 1/14 so how did he have earnings in 2010?  I'm having a hard time wrapping my chemo brain around this. 

Other than that he is doing great in Pensacola.  Is now in Phase 2 and loving it.  They had a six mile run yesterday, part of which was on the beach.

I miss the letters too.  I looked forward to to Wednesdays and would read them out loud to the rest of the family.

I miss my letters too - even though talking with my son pretty much daily is nice -- but the letters gave me something to look forward to during the week :)

Also, if anyone has the address of where to buy the DVD please post it - son didn't get it ordered and we didn't want to fight the crowds after PIR at the exchange - so partly my fault too!!!

My son is in Pensacola waiting on CTN school to begin--they told him about 4-6 weeks. He says he is busy,cleaning, duty and volenteering at the base church. He says it is warm and he is loving it! Sure is nice to talk with him on the phone---but I must confess--I miss the letters in the mail. Anyone else??

Hello Fellow Alums!!!

 

Sorry I have not been back on the discussion group but the trip took a lot out of me, still going through Chemo and had a treatment the day before I left, so needless to say.......

 

Anyway, my daughter is squared away in Pensacola, IT.  Anybody else out there from our grad group have a sailor there for the same?

 

She is still waiting on her security clearance, but is starting classes in the next two weeks anyway.  I am assuming they have more history to cover on her, since she is 31!!!

 

Let's keep in touch with each other, the graduation was wonderful and she looks great and seems really happy.  Her post on FB this morning stated "Insanely busy, but loving the Navy life"

 

That's all a mom can ask for!!!!

Comment by newnavymom(Ship 03 Div 79) on March 2, 2011 at 2:53pm

Comment by Ashley (Ship 3, DIV 081) on March 1, 2011 at 11:49pm
So I had an amazing weekend in GL, but now my sailor is in Groton, CT for BESS, then A-school. He's having some trouble still adjusting to not having any structure, and talking to "normal people" as he calls it, but all in all he sounds great, and I can't wait to fly out and see him. :) His classes started yesterday (Monday 2-28) It sounds like he's nejoying it.
Comment by NavyWife1214 (Ship 03 Div 079) on March 1, 2011 at 10:55pm
Are there any other Navy wives out there who are planning to move to Great Lakes with their sailors not having accompanied orders?
