    Hi Riptide, I really like your PIR group ~ lotsa aloha and gusto! My SR has Battle Stations Wed/Thurs this week so I am waiting on the "I am a Sailor" call. Going a bit nuttsy here... haven't heard a peep since 2/17. Now asking myself "Why did I raise him to be so darn independent?"  Logically, my brain understands the 'No news is good news', my heart does not and is having trouble with that creed...

    This Mama is long overdue. Lol

    Riptide...tell me about you and your SR...are you ready to for the PIR?  We made our plans the day after getting the letter...just so excited. 

    Nic is a great kid.  I have another son Ray.. he's 24, a brainiac...just finished his masters at Chapman University...already looking for another grad school.  Nic had a hard time in college--he admitted it just wasn't for him..always thought the Navy was where he'd end up.

     

    Just so cool to actually have someone to talk to about my son and what he's doing...
