did you say ship 09 div 016??? my husband is on this same ship & div!! i just got word yesterday from his recruiter about his status & have yet to find anyone else with the same status, please keep in touch if so!

I have done TONS of research about the boot camp process, This website has been more helpful than the recruiter. It is very exciting & eases my mind now that I have found someone from the same div! I do not know the PIR date yet, which varies by a week or so. My husband went in Oct 7th (they take new recruits on either Tues or Thurs) I was glad he decided to bring his cell phone (got to talk to him durring travel) Have you received you sons box? I have received the box, still awaiting the letter. From what I've read, the box with their stuff comes after the 1st week, the letter with contact info comes the 2-3 week, a phone call the 3-4 week (if they earn it) I hope I am able to afford to go to the PIR (graduation) My husbands 'A' school (tech school after BC) is only 9 weeks long & they won't pay for the cost of my moving to be with him because it is under 6 months, I am going to go on my own dollar because we want to be with each other. Right now I'm hoping to do both (PIR & moving for 'A' school.) Watch this video, it gives you an understanding on how BC is & is helpful with military jargon. Wonderful to meet you Maria, you can call me 'E' :) keep in touch!

HI labmom. Thankyou so much, I got 'chills' when I read your message, that's a good thing...everytime something touches my hearth I got those :) YES Let's pray for our love ones..8 weeks it's too much ,specially 'cause we know is something not eazy for them...(after BC it's over,) I keep hearing, things get better for them and by then I know we will be more used to the idea of them not being around us..It will be like them going to college far away..;) thinking that way will help me..:) I know I repeating what you just said, Im just trying to get in my head..:) stay in touch.

thank you Ms. Maria i got it already... from his mom before you send it to me and he called me last friday... he promise me everything it feels so good even if i know most of his promises wont happen :) i told him what's going back here and he was kind of sad... and told me that he will never forget me and i have mail coming. :)

Hello! I just realized I had messages waiting this whole time! are you going to PIR?

I hope you hear from your SR soon! My husband wrote telling me that he fell ill & it happens to everyone at some point! I hope your sons health returns soon! take care Ms.Maria!

they will be staying at the Great Lakes.... and pay for their expenses to go home... dont worry because im pretty sure its not one of our loves ones if we didnt get a call saying they've been kicked out of the RTC

did the doctors give you any reason when you brought him in for the problem before? sounds to me like it may be diet related. they have a very well balanced diet while in BC & the condition may be caused by a change in diet. my brother had a similar problem a few years ago, missing school because he was in soo much pain. & we figured out it was caused because he never ate vegetales, & had to cut out spicy foods & dairy out of his diet because his system couuldn't digest it. everyonce in a while he still has to take milk of magnesium for the condition. I hope you hear some good new soon Ms Maria! Don't stress too much about it! It'll only drive you crazy! wish you & your loved ones the best!

Ms.Maria dont worry about me... i am kind of worried too...because i've been sick for couple days and have a bad feeling that my boyfriend might be sick too... i hope our seaman is in good condition and that they still be in the same PiR

Maybe your husband is still in the same division... let's just keep praying!! and when i go to church today i will pray for your husband too.... i always go to church everyday just to stop by and pray even if the weather is kind of bad here :) i hope we get a call today because i am going crazy here...

i think your son... lol... i am confused here??? son or husband? well, i think he is still in the same PiR... dont worry too much i've been going to the church since the really first day my boyfriend left and have everyone in our div in my prayer... yeah i hope we get a call again and i dont know if i got a letter yet because my dad is the only one who have the key for the mailbox :) i'll see you in the PiR

well i talk to moms too :) some of the moms in the same PiR as our love ones talks to me in facebook too and i have no problem talking to moms :) yeah we are almost there!!! i hope i'll see all my new friends in PiR like you :) God bless us... i am so proud of our love ones even though i am really hating my boyfriend right now lol i'm just a spoled selfish brat that ones been spoiled by my boyfriend... he never leave me before... we always stayed together and never sleep at night without knowing that we are in each other's arms :) but i'm getting used to it!!! go!!! go!!! go!!! 19 day and we will see them again!

♥♥♥thanks for the info ms.maria!!! i am always waiting for a call everyday and hate it when i am getting a call from telemarketers and people i am not waiting for to call... i hope they do get to call on 25th!!! im so excited have my cell in my bra yikes!!! ♥♥♥

Hi Ms. Maria! It is good that you know what is wrong with your son, I'm sure the DR will take good care of our loved ones in BC. Like I was telling you, my brother had the same thing. I hope your sons condition gets better & he eats his veggetables! ;) I am going to see my husband earlier than PIR! His division 016 has earned to have Thanksgiving off in an "adopt a sailor' program. He called me a few days ago & we made the arrangements. It'll be an expensive trip for just one day, but he really insisted on me going. He has been doing very well & is EPO of the division (Educational Petty Officer) He is a few years older than the majority & loves the responsibility & respect from his peers. Our SR's are working their butts off to be able to write us letters & phone calls! I'm so proud of them all!! :) Your son's PIR date will only change if he falls behind. You should receive a phone call from him if his PIR date has changed. I have my fingers crossed for you! So there is a meet & greet at the ramada in the night before PIR Dec2nd, I'm not able to make it cuz I'll be arriving around midnight but you should attend if you can. It's a great way to figure out details, what to do, what not to do's etc. BTW my husband told me to dress to impress for PIR, we'll be meeting the Chief's & I guess jeans is a little too casual. I look forward to hopefully meet you soon! Woo! The days are growing ever soo closer! :D
