Hi everyone
I have been out of the U.S.A since last Tuesday and I am so blessed to be able to keep in touch via this site. I was worried that my SR would get a chance to call and I would miss it but guess they haven't had any chances so far. I return tomorrow and then fly out to Chicago on Friday so I will be tired but excited knowing that we will see him on Sunday. Hope everyone's doing fine and I wish for you all a happy holiday.

What kind of things are you taking to your SR at PIR? Those who have someone going to A school in GL. How are you planning to give them there personal belongings? I don't think they go over to there school until Monday. Does anyone have any information on this. I want to take him his cell phone and laptop, but they said he could not take them back to barracks. We have to leave Sunday morning. Any suggestions. I would like to take him his guitar, but don't know about that. Merry Christmas everyone and thanks for the support.

Cat, I have a few gifts for my SR, which I will give to him and will be doing the "indian giving." Once he gets to A school, I will send them to him. Merry Christmas!

I talked to a parent of a SR that had just done their PIR about 2 weeks ago and he told me they got to spend time with their Sailor on friday and their sailor left to A school Sat. am. He met his Sailor at the airport on sat and gave him his cel phone and some other things. I beleive that the sailor can only travel with a small solid black colored back pack any thing else would have to be checked as baggage. depending on what's allowed at their A school. If their A school is in great lakes you may have more time with your Sailor. I hope this helps

What about his car? He's not going to be in GL and we were wondering if they would be able to have their cars with them. Does anyone know? I'm checking with a friend of mine who is a chief and in CT so I'm hoping he'll have some answers. But I forgot to ask about the car.
