OPSEC, OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmust importance. Please take the time to read the Opsec and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names are never allowed on this site. If it is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended. First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but discouraged as their RDC's read this site and can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture.

Happy Veterans Day 1

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on November 11, 2011 at 4:22am

Added Sarges Meet and Greet to "events". Please try the link and let me know if it says that it is "full". We were having some problems with that...it may not "like" the large flyer and such. One member just ignored it on another group and RSVP'd anyways and it took it fine...thanks Jimbo (a dad...yay dads!).

Also, RSVP...it is not "necessary" mostly for you ladies to see who is going and to comment over there...but I know Sarge is on the site and may check.

His 11/10/2011 was a HUGE success...the mom from that group Invisible 12 REALLY promoted it over here and possibly on RTC FB (don't know if she was on that"...so I am trying to get the word out too for Sarge. You can read all about the event on the M & G page.

I will create the Ramada M & G too for you.

Links will be up above under the RTC one which is under the weather.

Praying for you and your daughter Andirondak- She wil be ok.. she is the strong young woman you sent off just a few weeks ago. Don't give up- just get moving and help as best you can to find the information she needs to get right back in the game. 

Comment by diannep on November 10, 2011 at 10:11pm

So glad that some letters came in today!

Comment by RuthL on November 10, 2011 at 8:40pm

Adirondack-I am so sorry for you and your daughter.  I will keep you both in my prayers.  I hope that she can find a way to work things out.  Take the advice of all the women on this page.  They know what they are talking about.

Margie-It is great to hear from our kids.  Hopefully he will get through the adjustment period and feel much better.  Just know he has a lot of support there and other recruits to lean on.

Veteran Moms-Thank you all so very much for making this process bearable

Comment by natalie'smom on November 10, 2011 at 8:35pm

I got 2 letters in the mail today from my daughter. I was so excited...I cried some and laughed some while reading them both. She sounds good and positive. She said she has been yelled at personally 1 time because she was talking in the Galley which she knew better, so the chief yelled at her and made her go to the back of the line and the eat with her left hand which she is right handed, but other than that she has not been yelled at and she is staying strong, She seemed to be happy. She is going to church which makes me feel good she is keeping her faith.  

Comment by Margie on November 10, 2011 at 8:20pm

Got our first real letter today, he sounded okay.  Said that bootcamp was not that much fun but not too bad.  He said he was in Leadership, and everything is going okay.  Said he everything was fast and a lot of yelling.  I feel better, at least for now. 

 

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on November 10, 2011 at 6:57pm

I am so sorry to hear that Adirondack. I know this is very hard for both of you. I hope you can get the answers you need and she can fight it. I wouldn't have thought TMJ would have been that big of a deal. I will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers.

Comment by RuthL on November 10, 2011 at 5:27pm

Got my letter today.  She sounded great and likes it so far.  She said the real workouts start this week and she couldn't wait.  I was worried she would be misserable, but sounds really posssitve.  Only negative was about whiney people. She never has been good about that.  Will summarize on the 09/022 wall.
