My son also was in Ship 3, Div 305. Unfortunately, he got a bloody nose and was sent to Medical. Medical decided that his blood pressure was up and is currently sending him back home to get waivers from his doctor. I have spoke to my son. He has told me that they are working all the time. You should hear something from your son/daughter probably this weekend. My son stated that Ship 3 should be able to call home on the 2nd week. Hope this helps.

Thank you "A Seabee Mom". I have looked at the Ship 5 on the RTC portion of the Navy Website. Actually Chris is fine. I spoke to him today. He is still waiting to see the doctor before he see's the Legal Department. I have worked in Contract Negotiations for 25 + years, so I have been doing my research for him. They will be seperating him on a Administrative Medical with Re-Enlistment Eligibility. He has 6 months to get his doctor waiver to re-enlist. Unfortunately he was going in the Submarine Electronic/Computer Field. With the blood pressure, he obviously cannot do this job. I have spoke to his Recruiter and the Chief at the recruiting station. They will be helping him once he gets home in guiding him on the waiver. He was pretty teed off when he first found out, however his overall mood is better. He comes from a family of Military Enlistee's so we/he has a good knowledge of what to look for in the final discharge papers (they can tell you one thing and then write another). I have also told him the RE codes to look for on his discharge papers. I feel for so many parents that are going through this. I will post something on the Medical Discharge referring them where to look for these RE numbers so that they can pass it along to their kids. Some of these kids are so young and uninformed that there whole future could be messed up. Chris told me this morning that about 12 more recruites from Ship 3, Div. 305 were transferred to Ship 5 (Medical and waiting for transfer ship).

Dear Beckibiglersmith - what is your son's name? The next time I hear from my son, I will ask if he can find out how he is doing and when the phone call will be allowed. I don't know if he will know for sure since I am new at this, but hey it is worth a try.

He was suppose to call Tuesday, but I have not heard from him yet. As soon as I do (hopefully today - this is driving me crazy!!!) I will post what Chris tells me.
