Will One Pass work for two cars?

I have two questions.  Will the one parking pass I print out for PIR work for both my rental car and my ex husbands rental car?  Or will he need to call RTC and get his own? Also, they say you have…Continue

Ariel only has to finish the run and BS. I know privacy and quiet time can be an issue when you share a compartment with others in the Navy. Ariel mentioned that as an issue while in bootcamp. Hopefully Tiff's roommates become more considerate of other's study time. Yes, I really wish this phase of bootcamp ends soon so Ariel can enjoy the holiday break and come home. She may break the record for the longest time in bootcamp (hahaha). I'm sure will remember Tiff, and thanks again for being so supportive. I'm sure Ariel will be pleasantly surprised to get a card from you.

We've only had one phone call since she's been in RCU. She is writing, but no word yet when things could be finalized. She is phasing up in therapy, and waiting to be released from medical hold so she can run. I'll go to facebook and send you her address. I know Tiff is so happy to wear her clothes and have some individuality. Is Tiff coming home for Thanksgiving? I hope you get to see her for the holidays. Things are so uncertain with Ariel I just want her to finally finish bootcamp.

Okay you were reading my mind. I was thinking about you earlier and was wondering how Tiff's doing and if she would come home for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Ariel is doing okay, and we are still waiting for her to get released from medical hold. I received a letter from her yesterday dated, Oct. 26th and she was scheduled to see the doctor, Oct. 28th for an update. She was hoping the doctor would okay her to start running again. I'm not sure who she's in contact with. I think it's a completely new group of recruits. Her letters are more encouraging and optimistic. So I'm still waiting to get a call with good news..

There were two other girls from div. 328 that were held back because they did not pass the run, but when Ariel was placed on medical hold I don't think she knew anyone. She says a friend goes to visit her and mentioned one of the petty officer's being very encouraging. She goes to church alot and reads her bible.

When did your daughter PIR?

Sharon I am on facebook (Teri Harper). Let me warn you I am really bad about going to facebook. Since my daughter has been in the Navy this is the most that I have ever accessed the computer. I love this website. A member of my church was asking me how Ariel was, and her daughter is considering going to the Navy. I told her about the website, because it has really been a lfesaver. I don't know what I would have done if I had not signed up here. Also my husband got a call from Ariel, but it was the shortest since the first call when she arrived at bootcamp. She feeling down, but still optimistic. Her iron and hemoglobin both dropped and now she has shin spints and a bad knee. This girl has been through the wringer. I pray things get better and she graduates soon.

Sharon how is Tiff liking her new room? How much room do they have to keep their navy stuff and personal items? So is it true that when they leave the base they have to travel in pairs? What internet service did Tiff get, and is it on a cell phone or laptop? It's been almost 3 months since Ariel went to the hair salon. I know she'll really be in need of a trip to the salon so she can get a perm and a decent hair cut. When we saw her she said she looked like sonic the hedge hog. I didn't comment but her hair was in bad shape, and there is no where on base that can care for black hair. I found a salon nearby where she can go once she graduates. Please Lord let Ariel get healthy and graduate soon. ... Amen!!!!!! Have a hsppy Sunday:)
