Hi!!
Welcome to your PIR group!
My son graduated BC in April of 2012. He is an ET3, stayed in GL for A School, went to C School in San Diego, and is currently stationed with USS Germantown (LSD-42) in Japan. The ship he is attached to is a Whidbey Island-class landing ship, part of the Bonhomme Richard Amphibious Ready Group (ARG).
A few other veteran moms will be joining to help answer questions, offer support, and give you lots of information.
There will also be lots of pages posted with information for you along the way. They will be posted as the subjects come up!
Remember there are no dumb questions, so ask away!
Fasten your seatbelts...the next few weeks will be a roller coaster ride, but at the end of the ride you are in for the best hug ever!!

Hi!
Welcome to Navy for Moms!!
My Sailor Daughter's PIR was March 2013--can't believe how fast time has flown!. She is an IT3 (Information Systems Technician, Petty Officer Third Class) stationed in Norfolk, Virginia. I primarily provide scriptural encouragement for the PIR groups, Boot Camp Moms (and loved ones) and a few of the other groups that I am a member of. I'll also help out with anything that I am familiar with--all kinds of tidbits I learned during my daughter's Boot Camp experience~~ This site really made the time go much faster. I'm so thankful that my Sailor daughter sent me the link for this awesome group of friends when she enlisted!! Count 9 Fridays and before you know it, you'll be seeing your baby again at PIR!! Here we go!!!

Good Morning PIR 4-4-14. So excited. My son is also on Ship 03 Div 128. I have never spent so much time on the computer in my life. LOL. It is awesome, all the wonderful groups and fb groups, to share this journey with other people in the same shoes.

Welcome to the new members! More should be finding this group soon. I am one of the N4Moms veterans, here to help! I have been helping on the PIR groups now for over 4 yrs...ever since my son graduated Bootcamp. He has now been honorably discharged and is using the GI BIll to complete his Bachelors...hoping to have it by this summer. Please post any questions you have. Also, please look through the "pages" section--- top right, under the MEMBERS PHOTO BOX for info!

The scripted "I'm Here" call....can even come in the middle of the night! Some have missed it. It is brief, but is good to hear their voices. Some may get a longer call in a week or two after that. They say week #3, but many times, it comes earlier. Phones glued to your bodies....calls are random and can come at anytime!
