Glad to hear that they are coming together as a family... I was hoping they would have won the captains cup so we could have heard their voices. We will see them in less than a week. Are you going to PIR by yourself?

I'm new to all this. My boyfriend is on Ship 12 Div 311.
We have already made the plans to go up there and we have our hotel. But I'm confused about the way graduation day is suppose to go. His parents have been to Army grads for his cousins but Navy grads go differently from what I have been told.
Can anyone give a quick run through on how the day before grad and graduation day is suppose to go? -

I have looked at that page lol, thats how I got confused.
Its liberty I am confused about. They have a liberty call at the end of the ceremony. Is that when we first get our SRs? Because it said somewhere on there about how they wont get there first day of liberty till Saturday.
My mind is all over the place. I practically planned our trip and just had to give his parents all the important dates and stuff. So everything has pretty much been jumbled together. -

unless he has A school in GL he should have liberty at the end of PIR he most likely will be leaving on Sat for his A school most do if he has A school in GL he will have to check in his school first and that can take some time Yes you will get a big hug when they call Liberty just remember not to get make up on his dress whites lol god Bless

liberty call is basically, and someone correct me if i'm wrong, but basically he get to leave the base and you get to spend the day with him til he has to be back later that night...
