How does it work if your renting a car ? Is there an extra process when getting on base?
Comment by Suzanne H on January 22, 2019 at 2:39pm

Thanks! I was concerned that I might have needed to register the car or get a special pass

Hi All,
I am looking for information on parking for PIR on January 25. I am flying to Milwaukee and will be driving down from Wisconsin.
Comment by beaufort71 on January 15, 2019 at 2:29pm

Hello All,

My son's PIR was pushed back to March 01, 2019.  He gave me his division # and PIR date, however I did not get his Ship #.  Will that be provided in the form letter and how long before I receive that letter.  I spoke to my son on January 03, 2019.  Any info would greatly be appreciated!  Thanks

To Moms of Graduated Sailors - If you attended the Sarge's Meet and Greet, what was it like?  I am really interested in seeing pictures and videos of my son's boot camp experience.  And I would enjoy meeting other parents as well.

TY once again lemonelephant!!

Comment by lemonelephant on December 18, 2018 at 11:18pm

Tlpemp55, It is usually Saturday, but flight availability issues could result in a Sunday flight. Only your then Sailor will know for sure. See PIR Day and Liberty during PIR Weekend.

My daughter is due to graduate 1/25/2018. Booking flights and hotel. Does anyone know for sure when they leave for A school if going to Pensacola FL? Saturday or Sunday?
