  • STG path for first year or two

  • A & C School in San Diego!

    I found a discussion on here but from 2009 and not sure how current or active those members are. My fiance is heading out there in about a month to start A school. We are getting married in December so I will be there also in about 2 months. We are considering the off base military housing and I…

  • Moving during school

    My husband is doing the stg aef/6 year. He goes to boot camp next month. We own a house here in MA, and I'm just trying to get a loose idea of when things will happen, so I have everything taken care here and ready to go. At what stage of schooling will he be able to apply to have us move with him?…

  • What to bring to GL after Boot Camp, if Sailor is staying

    My son is leaving for Boot tomorrow, 6 yr STG. I know he will be staying in GL for 6 weeks, then to SD for at least a year. We plan on driving out from CT for PIR, and my son wants us to bring all of his belongings ( clothing, TV, gaming system, etc) What will he be able to keep? Hate to haul it…

  • After PIR - where do they fly out of?

    Hi guys, I was wondering after PIR, when do they fly out and out of which airport? My older son went to school in Pensacola, so I know what they will typically do for that group; they went out at 0200 on early Sunday morning out Midway on Airtran. I have no idea about those going to San Diego. Can…

  • Getting Married in A School

    Hi! My fiance sent me a long letter this week and one of the topics was on San Diego. I am trying to figure out the process for him getting a day off once in San Diego so we can go to the court house and get our marriage license. He brought up that his A school is only 66 days, and people keep…

  • My wonderful daughter joined the Navy yesterday....

    And she selected a job of sonar technician!  We are all very excited and I cannot wait to see what lies ahead for her.  I am sure this field of work never crossed her mind before she visited MEPS. The next few months will definitely be interesting!

  • Soooo many questions...

    My daughter leaves for boot camp in July, her rate is STG.  I'm way ahead of the game here, but I'm trying to reconcile what I read, what's on the papers, and what the recruiter says into one thing.  It all seems to bounce off each other.  Her papers say her A school will be in San Diego for 12…

  • Visit during A school

    Can anyone tell me where I would find information about when and if we can visit our son while after he graduates from GL BC and gets settled into SD for A school? We have a vacation coming and would love to spend it with/around him!
