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

Comment by beautzer on February 8, 2016 at 10:08am: I am trying to figure out where to order graduation pictures and cd - does anyone know the link? Thank yoiu

Comment by MarNavyMom on February 7, 2016 at 9:04pm: Mine is stationed here but when he was in A school in Pensacola we visited him about a month or two later. At first they are more strict then they get more privileges but your sailor will know. You can stay on base at the Navy Gateway and you will be really close to where the sailors stay.

Comment by Marilyn on February 7, 2016 at 6:20pm: Hi My SR will be coming to Meridian,MS torwards the end of March. When will I be able to visit my SR?

Comment by MarNavyMom on August 2, 2015 at 9:02pm: Hi KellsR3714,

I believe the only airline is American Airline into Meridian US Airway is also owned by American Airlines any way as far as I know that is the only airline. I heard there was a train but I do not know very much about it. The other big airport is Jackson but it is about an hour and a half away so that may be an expensive cab ride. You could rent a car though. I am going to drive from Texas it will be about 8 hours for us.

Comment by KellsR3714 on August 2, 2015 at 7:33pm: Hello ,
My boyfriend is in A school in Meridian also.
I Plan on going to visit him but I live in NYC.
How can I get there .. Can anyone give me some information please ?

Comment by ilace18 on April 9, 2015 at 1:19pm: Yeah my son had liberty Saturday and Sunday I wish I could have been their but I plan on seeing him soon
