graduation
My boyfriend is on ship 03 division 143. Is there any one else with a loved one on the same division?
Anyway, I had called my boyfriend's recruiter a week or so ago. And i asked him a bunch of information about graduation. He had told me that if my boyfriend finds someone in his division with no family going to graduation or has an extra ticket, that he could possibly use it on me and put my name down as well. Because he does have a big family. So i was wondering what are that chances of this being able to work out? And is there anyone who knows someone on this division who has a ticket to spare? It would be much appreciated! :D

So if someone for instance didn't have any family going, could he ask to put my name down in replace of that empty spot on another persons list?

He can put you down under another SR's name. My husband has gotten 5 extra people put on the list for his PIR on 3-11. Im sure your boyfriend will have no problem getting you put on the list.

Boyfriend is on Ship 3 Div 143
I'm not able to go to graduation, same problem but we are getting a hotel room and having him spend time with us while he has liberty.

Aw are you not able to go because his family already has 4 people going? Or because you can't afford the plane ticket? :/ And that's my plan as well. Me and my bf's family are getting a hotel so we can spend time with him on friday. Do they only get that one day of liberty?
