    Calls for Recruits.org would like you to know about a program for the Men and Women of our Armed Forces.  I am giving away free phone cards for Recruits to use while they are in basic training to keep in touch with Family Members and Loved Ones.  I feel that the Family, Loved Ones, nor the Men and Women of our Armed Forces should have to pay for phone calls from Boot Camp.  Please click the link above and get your new Service Member the FREE phone cards they need.

    You know I completely forgot my info was on my page! Sorry for the "duh" momentYou'll have to excuse me this week I'm a little .shook!
  • RyansMum (MM/Nuke)

    I know what you mean. Tuesday was sad. Driving away without him was one of the hardest things I've ever done, Well I'm glad they found each other. Maybe they'll be in the same division. I've gotten Jeff's address from the recruiter, but I want to check it on this site before I mail anything.
  • RyansMum (MM/Nuke)

    Jeff's birthday is In June. I agree, another hurdle. Oh well, we can handle it! I'm sending out the letters I have today. It makes me feel better!
  • RyansMum (MM/Nuke)

    Call his recruiter. He should have it by now.
  • MOMofDREW2.0

    I feel the same about the birthday.....I always made too big of a deal about my boys birthdays.  I wonder if they will even know it is their birthdays with so much going on?

  • RyansMum (MM/Nuke)

    We've been watching fares since the Navy Moms site gave us the estimate. Southwest still has $168 flying out and $98 flying home. Travel is at 6:00 am, but its nonstop. Luckily it works for us.
  • MOMofDREW2.0

    If it would help, I'll fax you my form letter so you can see what's coming.  Also, I mean no disrespect, but at the last moment my son wrote down our address because he wasnt sure if he could remember it!  They dont write letters anymore, so is there a chance your son transposed something.  So sorry,....message me back a fax number & it's done.

    Did Michael sign up in the Lowell Recruitment Office?
  • RyansMum (MM/Nuke)

    If you dont get anywhere tomorrow let me know and I'll ask Jeff's recruiter.

    Oh my goodness, what i would give to hear my son's voice. Your husband is lucky and I wish it had been you that answered. I know how us moms feel. Lets keep each other posted on letters etc.. Maybe today? I am praying for us all to get letters from our loved ones.  

  • Meegan

    I am also very nervous after reading some of the things people have posted that they have recieved. I am hearing a lot about Band aids, Is it ok to send them with our letters? I bought a huge roll of Mole Skin and was going to send it in my letters but I do not want to get my son in trouble. Do you know if it is ok. I would like to send some in each letter so he can share with others for their blisters.

    It is Sunday morning and I am praying AGAIN for a phone call. No mail on Sundays so no chance of that. I wake up in the morning and he is the first thing I think about, i look at the clock and think about what time it is there and what he is doing and tears come to my eyes b/c all i want is to hear his voice.
