Everyone enjoy your visits with your Nukes! Having them home will make the holidays all the more special. I have been down in the dumps about not having my son home this year but I am finally getting over it. I am still blessed to have the rest of my family including both of my parents. I will celebrate the birth of Christ with all of them. I will continue to look forward to a future visit from my Navy boy.

Sorry you were not able to have that last visit with her that you were hoping for. Enjoy your Christmass with your sailor. I talk to Josh, he started his journey from Vegas to Goose Creek. He called Eve and Day, he is going to call during our family get togethers so he can talk to everyone. Not quite the same but will have to do. MERRY CHRISTMASS EVERYONE!

Happy birthday to him! Has he been told he will be in that class? My nuke told me he didn't know if he would be in that class as he questioned if it would be filled by the time it got to him.

Betsyleebig....your son graduated A school the same week as mine. He shoul;d definately be in 1202 as the class was still in the first week or two of being filled and it usually takes 3-5 weeks to fill. However, my son was told his start date for PS. Did your son talk to his SLPO? He/she should be able to him the answers.
Only 4 weeks left before they finally start PS! I hope by the time they start Prototype and have to apply what they learned in A school and PS, they haven't forgot it all. Thank goodness my son has much better retention than his mother. If I don't use it, I loose it.
