OK SO I CAN GET TSHIRTS MADE UP .. WITH A PIC OF SOMETHING FROM THE NAVY AND THERE SHIP AND DIVISION IN BRIGHT GREEN FOR $12 I PIECE.. THATS FOR SMALL MED LARGE AND EXTRA LARGE .. xx and xxx ARE LIKE 1.50 MORE EACH SIZE U GO UP.. I NEED T PUT THE ORDER IN 2 WEEKS BEFORE WE NEED THEM .. SO HELP ME OUT WITH GIVING ME SOME INFORMATION ASAP
Freebird- thanks for your work on checking things out on shirts! I'm sorry I didn't reply to your question sooner. I've been still floating on receiving a letter! I vote for tshirt. I think it will be too warm for a sweatshirt, too cool for a tank top. Any other opinions? I could be way off. Maybe it will be chilly enough that we'll want the jacket type sweatshirt.
BTW- I haven't RSVPed for meet and greet because I don't know yet when we'll get there. We may be arriving too late. One of my other kids will be taking summer classes and she'll need to go to class first. Also, SRs boyfriend is in a new job and would like to be able to work that day. Right now- up in the air. Maybe some of us can go earlier than others, but quite a drive to do that. IDK
J- I am so happy to hear from the mom of another girl! I was beginning to think mine was the only one there. (wink)
Dot said she passed all the tests so far (which I guess I knew because I hadn't heard she didn't right? The whole no news is good news thing.. Anyway- she commented that 20%-25% didn't. Too bad. I hope their division is getting together as a team. I know that's really important and that's what the RDCs want to see happen. We should all push that concept in our letters.
Also, she commented that they lucked out with their RDCs. She said they are a lot more respectful than some. I'm so glad!
IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR SHIRTS .. I OWN A BAR SO I AM GOING TO GO TO THE LPACE WHER I GET MY TSHIRTS FROM FOR THE BAR.. I WILL LET YOU KNOW :)
