Thank You for the info! I got my phone call today while I was at work and was able to talk to my son for 15 minutes! Made my day! He sounded great--although he said everyone has been sick off and on- giving it back and forth to each other. He had to have more blood work and chest x-rays done for sub school. I wish I had a list of questions with me- because I was so happy to hear his voice- I forgot a lot of things I wanted to ask him. He did not get in trouble for all of the photos my dad and I sent him--so that was good- I will send more! I am in need of one more ticket as well--I need to write him now and see about finding one!

My SR called today but I missed his call we are on our way to Ohio to visit with family and he called while I was on the plane. I got his message as I was trying to make my next flight, so I kind of fell apart in the terminal. I felt so bad that I wasn't there to get his call. Of course this was the first time my phone has been off since he left for bc on 8/10.

Oh-- I am so sorry to hear that---I would have lost it as well! Maybe they can call again if they are unable to reach you-yes?

I just found you guys! Phew! Just wanted to chime in and say "hi"! Our son Is in 3/336 and heads to Goose Creek for A school and Nuc School. This is all so exciting! I've been a Navy dependent my whole life, but it surely is different experiencing it with my son. Looking forward to the big day! I'm from Annapolis, MD!

Monterey is gorgeous! What is he doing after A-school that he gets to go to that gorgeous location? Also, what are the details for the meet and greet Thursday night? Do we need to RSVP? I'll try to look through the threads to get more information.

He is in the CTI program to be an interpreter. Depends on the language he gets as to where he goes after Monterrey. Time will tell! You need to join the meet and greet group for this PIR date and then put in your RSVP there. If you can't find it just post here and someone will give more detail on how to find it. See you in a few weeks!!

Thank you! I found it - duh! I will RSVP as soon as I find out how many family members are going. Got a letter today; I am so thrilled. Other than having his bottom wisdom teeth taken out he sounds great.
