We were there too watching the graduation. They all look so confident and it was fun to see them for the first time in their dress blues. I think the Navy is smart to give the sailors some time to de-stress from studying with the T track idea. Welcome to our site. Maybe our sons will be in the same power school class.

Hate to be a kill joy but I didn't think you were allowed to take picture of the outside facility. I know when I asked my son to show me what was outside his dorm room he said he was not suppose to. Maybe someone who knows more than I do can address this.

Janenrich, didn't take the pictures, she just shared the link. I also thought you couldn't take those pics but not certain. I have however seen other pics when I googled. They (pics) are out there!
My son says that the Power school class will be be Class 1202. Can anyone confirm this? I will change our forum to T-track (Power School Class 1202 waiting to fill) if I know for sure.

Spending alot of time in the Gym and playing Billards with the rest of the guys! Watch rotation just changed to 12/24, 12 hrs on 24 hrs off.

My EM son told me a day or two ago that he will class up in Feb. and his class will be 1202. He's told me a couple of times that he's somewhat bored. Oh well, that will change when PS comes around! Then he'll be wishing for some down time!!

Have your sons or daughters gotten their chit to come home at Christmas yet? My son has not gotten his.I thought the dates they were given in A school were firm. We have already bought his ticket. I don't know if his concern is premature or if everybody else have gotten theirs.

Betsyleebig .......did he approach his SLPO to get it? My son got his chit to go to Vegas last week. They gave him the dates he was told however, he cannot leave until after 3:00 pm on his leave start date and has to be back early (I can't remember the time) on the last date. I hope you ticket will comply with their guidelines if not, I hope you got insurance. Good luck.
Amanda...... you know what they say.... "boys and their toys" hahaha. . That money is burning a hole in his pocket before it even gets there. Josh is also looking forward to ther extra pay and when he picks up his car (wich he is anxious to get) and his belongings he will have an extra $170.00 a month just by getting rid of the storage locker payment. He also told me about the 12/24 watch and warned me that I won't be able to get a hold of him as easily as the last few weeks.
