My boyfriend is currently in Goose Creek, and Im in the process of booking my flights and hotel to visit him for the weekend in a little over a month. When I went to his graduation sadly, we found out shortly before we left that he was Grad n go and we would only have a few hours with him, so I really want to make that weekend really special... BUT, Im not really good with all of that. Does anyone have any ideas? anything and everything would help so much!

 

Thanks everyone!

I don't really have any ideas right off hand, but my bf is going to goose creek after BC.

Is yours a nuke? did he fly out saturday?

did you get friday with him?

He is a Nuke, and yeah he flew out saturday morning. after graduation we had until about 7ish with him because he had to be back on base early. On saturday his parents and I decided to go to the airport with him until his flight. we got there at about 5 in the morning and his flight boarded around 930 so we got a few hours with that. if you want to see him at the airport then tell him to ask for I think its called a visitors pass to his gate, then you just have to show your ID and then you can wait with him until his flight.
Oh yay! that's awesome! he's thinking he'll be in GL for the whole weekend because theyre supposidly backed up with nukes, but i dunno about that.
Well just be open minded, in case he does end up leaving early. But praying that you will get the whole weekend! You're going to LOVE PIR it was absolutely amazing!!

Lol. Yeah, I know. There's uh, yeah. Lol. I dated someone who went through boot and he had me go to his PIR. Right after, we mutually broke it off. I decided I wanted to join, and met a boy who i then fell in love with at the office, lol

awe thats so cute! (: yay for falling in love! lol
hahaha, yes, definitely yay!!!(:
I cant go! :( its such a bummer!!
Can't go see him? Awhhh:(( How come? If you don't mind my asking
He doesnt have a car down there yet so we would have to take a cab there, and after my getting out there neither of us will have enough money to go anywhere or do anything at all. He comes home for Christmas and its killing me because its so far away.. but maybe after that I can go see him for a weekend or something.
Yours is in Goose Creek correct?
yah
