Any one with recruit PIR March 13

Can someone tell/explain what BECC is?

Hello All, 

It has been amazing to have our sailor home for Christmas. Though I would catch myself being sad here and there because I kept thinking to myself. This may be our last Christmas together for awhile. As most of your know, my husband and I were in the Navy. So, we do get it but it just hit me that after tomorrow. When he goes back to A school that we will not know the next time we will see him, but that is…

Hello, it has been a great day. My son got to come home for Christmas and we were able to pull off a surprise for both his brother and sister. It was so great to see how happy they were to see their brother home. It just so great to have him in our house. 

Hope everyone , has a wonderful Christmas. 

I am a Navy mom of almost 5 years. They have been 5 years of excitement, trials, tribulations and now ending in dissapointment for our son.  He has had a stellar record in the Navy every advancement you could imagine so quickly too- the Navy was his home. He had just recently enlisted for 6 more years to head back to Japan where he already served 3 there.  We thought everything was going great - cloud nine.  To receive a call from the Military that he tried to take his own life a month ago. …

Good morning!! Got the letter yesterday with my son's ship & division. How do I find the group here with the same?? Thank you!!

So much has happened in the last few weeks that I hardly know where to begin. I apologize for the long blog post, but this is actually very therapeutic for me to write here, and I hope that it might resonate with others who are feeling the same...

My son enlisted and entered into the Navy DEP in early September. Prior to this, he went to community college for 2 years, but didn't enjoy it, and decided over the summer that he might be better suited for the military. He scored…

Hi, good morning all!! I wanted to ask, how do the holidays affect PIR? My son left the week of Thanksgiving, so he will be in boot camp for all upcoming holidays. I didn't know if this pushed back PIR a week or so, or how it worked. 

Thanks so much! I miss him like crazy!!

my grand daughters 5th grade class would like to right letters to those who need or do not get any. Need to know how to go about this. Thanks for any information.

Hi now that I know my son's ship and Division is there any groups for that?

Good morning all!! This is my first post, as the last couple of weeks have been busy. I dropped my son off November 24th (my birthday) at the recruiter's office. The following day, I drove down to MEPS to watch him swear in. The first week without him has been ok. I'm just keep reminding myself that he is good! He and I are very close. It has been just the two of us since 2012. We flooded in 2016 and lived in a 26' camper in the drive way for almost 18 months. That just made our bond…

My son facebook messaged us to tell us that he was being rerated as he had failed his test again. All he wanted to be was a corpsman. He was getting really good grades on the labs but it was the test. This was something that I was worried about when he said he wanted to be a corpsman because I was worried that the test would trip him up.  My son, has never been a very good test taker. He over complicates them is the best way to put it. 

One of his instructors said that they learn two…

Hello fellow Navy Moms!

I was wondering if anyone has the link to get the reorder form for ordering additional photos of my sailor...any help would be apprecited

Hey all!

My son is home on leave and I asked how he was liking the Fleet Sheets we purchased for him. He said  "I'm so sorry they got thrown away." They had a long holiday weekend, so he was away from ship and they had some kind of inspection. That specific inspection does NOT allow anything other than issued rack bedding. He said if he knew he would have temporarily removed them. They gave no information other than...sorry we threw them away because they didn't meet the standards for…

Can any on you advise me where I can get a phone card? I received a letter today from my brother today and he asked if I can send him a phone card. I have looked at Walmart before and at Walgreens, but I couldn’t find anything. Will any of you please let me know where I can get this? I know they can buy it at the base, but I’m assuming he doesn’t have a lot of money. Also ... he rarely ask for anything, I would hate not to send this. Thank you.
