frandnavymom-I received my call about the same time 9:57. I see some of the others received their boxes, that arrived the day before on 3/4. I was really hoping to get mine today. I guess our sons will have the same PIR date. I am so happy to have found this website it has helped so much with all the questions. I have been on here for 3 days reading and reading lol anything to take my mind off missing my son

I received my form letter yesterday and his box today. I have a question for anyone, my sons cell phone was not in his box, the charger, case for the phone were and i found the phone battery in the bottom of the box. I double check everything in the box again and no phone. I called his recruiter and he said to just write my son and ask him if he kept the phone. But very strange to have a phone with no battery, has anyone else have this issue?

I just sent the info to you in a friend request, I think? Did you get it? If so, don't hit ACCEPT or the info I sent will disappear! Let me know if you didn't get it!

I don't think the style of the wallet matters. Not even sure about the color having to be black since it is "hidden" and not outside their uniform. Why not consider shopping with your sailor after PIR and let him pick it out? That way, you can be sure that he gets what he wants???

Just a thought! They have a nice big mall there (Gurnee) and there are other stores....and if you decide to go into Chicago, there are even more selections!

I'm not sure what others will say, but I send my daughter chocolate. I did during the 3 years she was in and I still do to the Bush. M&Ms will be fine. One Halloween I asked for requests and gave them everything from smarties, skittles, tootsie rolls and whatever kind of chocolate they requested. Don't think I send a box without some kind of cookie(s) that has chocolate in them.

(FYI- I did send a friend request earlier.)
