I'm a little luckier than most parents, my son was only a few hours away, until a few months ago, now he has been deployed. SWCC has so much training, it's my understanding that it takes a long time before they are deployed. SD is an awsome place to be stationed! I believe all SWCC training is done there. Your son probably knows Nikki's brother. They are probably on the same ship.

Hi D'sMum35, I'm so glad you posted. I'm going to try to get more SWCC moms on here regularly. We could really benefit from your experience. My son was in pre-buds and then received a SWCC contract, but he's still in Great Lakes on hold waiting for the next class to start. I live in No. Calif so I'm hoping to visit him at least once while he's training. Anything you care to share is appreciated. I would love to have some of his friends come for 'home cooking' someday.

I am a SWCC mom. I am new to this group. I agree with Tee-1sailor's mom, it would be great to see some more activity. My son tested for SWCC before signing up. The diffrence in these young men is amazing. We live close to the Coronado base, so he would come home almost every weekend. He brings his buddies sometimes. His first year, he brought home three sailors for Thanksgiving. It was a lot of fun. We had dinner outside, one of the sailors grew up in the mid west. He loved that it was 78 degrees! They are a great group, and my sons ship is now deployed! We miss all of them. Some days more than others! Thank you all for everything you contribute.

I would love to see this group become more active. Any SWCC family out there?

Do any orf you moms have boys waiting to start school in Coronado? cal and 13 others all flew in last thursday. He says there are over 40 in all waiting to start. How long is this likely to take? He says they work out and study together every day, although I'm not sure what they are studying if the class has not started yet. Anyone know more about this?

Hello fellow Texan! I, myself, don't understand the process while at Boot Camp. There is a SWCC instructor that is a member of this group.(scroll down this page)....hopefully, he will respond. If not, maybe you can send a message directly to him?

Hi Sandy, thanks for the insight! This physical conditioning appears to also be contingent upon mental conditioning. They go hand in hand, right? You must be very proud of your son! I know a lot of the Mothers look forward to reading your words as your words have experience behind them. Blessings to you! ~Kerry
