I hope you get all the information here you are looking for. Please stop by the Survival Guide for New Moms for some of the info to start with.
If you have a new Recruit and need phone cards for them please check out Calls for Recruits.org and get them for FREE. 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. The link above will take you to the website to send the email for the FREE phone cards if you need them. Please spread the word if you know of anyone who can use this great service!!!
hi, I posted this in Boot Camp Moms (and loved ones), but I wanted to be sure you saw. I don't see that your questions were answered from earllier today. Most of your questions are answered in PIR Day and Liberty During PIR Weekend, but I will go ahead and answer. You will not need a special pass to meet him at the USO or airline counter, whichever is where you choose to meet. You can go with him to the airline conter and get guest/gate passes (sometimes called a companion pass) to accompany him to the gate. Security at both airlines will treat you well as long as you are respecful and I can't see why you wouldn't be; they are very good to the new Sailors and their families. Your plan for meeting him seems like a good one. Yes you will need a gate pass if you intend to drop himm off within the RTC before Liberty expires that evening. No, his girlfriend cannot be on the RTC as, except to be in the vehicle when you drop him off that evening; she needs to stay at the hotel during PIR. Take care and blessings to you and yours.
