    Hi Freebird.  You are my first friend!  I am so excited.  This whole experience is going to be crazy for us as a family.  Trent is headed for Nuclear Engineering after BC.

    I think their grad date will be June 17th, as Trent understood that it would take about a week for processing before they started BC

    Join the group, Leavin' for bootcamp in October. You will meet others with loved ones leaving 10/08/2014 or that week who may be in the same TG and have PIR together. Be sure to check out the discussion, Things to Do in the Last Month before Your Future Sailor Leaves for....

    Your future Sailor may want to join http://www.navydep.com to learn the ins and outs from the DEP point of view. Craig runs that and will steer him to some good links on there.

    I see your future Sailor has a contract for Mineman (MN). Apprentice Technical Training (ATT) is at GL after PIR for about 6 weeks and then your Sailor will go to San Diego, CA to the Naval Mine and Anti-Submarine Warfare Training Center for “A” School. The Rating Information Card for MN can be found at https://www.cool.navy.mil/enlisted/rating_info_cards/mn.pdf. That indicates Ingleside, TX, but that is wrong; “A” School has been in San Diego for several years. Since ATT is at GL, you will be able to spend extra time with your Sailor following PIR. (See PIR Day and Liberty during PIR Weekend.)
