I didn't hear from my SR any word on her A school orders. She'll be going to corpsman training. Her recruiter told her she'd go to GL (even though a few weeks before she left, he told her it might be…Continue

Hi all, I thought I'd start a discussion for those of us with SRs who will be heading to Charleston, SC together for the NUKE program so we can stay together through that as well!

I'm so happy...I just received my SR's address in the mail today :) :) :)
Ship 07 Div 194. Does anyone else have the same?
Thanks so much Jessica - he missed a number on his date so we assumed the 10th - excited it is the third!!!
Blitz - no worries - we all totally understand!!!!!! I still have the box in my room so I can look at his handwriting..........
We have a small house so when Gerald left my other kids split up rooms so I lost the option of having his room to look at and sit in so his box is my only option!!!!
So good to hear from all of you - the same feelings I have - when I got his box last week- the poor Fed Ex driver got hugged and I cried - he was touched - fortunately I knew him from a previous job so it wasn't quite so weird that I hugged him......
I got his letter 3 days later so it was a hard three days of waiting - but I have decided as others that it is the good part is - no news is good news - but yet that is soooo hard
I also agree with the others that it is difficult to know what to tell them while they are away!!
Thanks so much for starting this group - will keep me going for the next several weeks -
who has a child going to A school in Pensacola???
Have a great day!
