Amanda.... I hope not. Being that our boys graduated in the begining of this T-track, I doubt if they would get held up. Most likely it would be the ones that graduated more recently. I would think anyway. Who knows? Let us know if you hear anything.

spoke to Colin yesterday, starts indoc Feb 8th, then classes start Feb 13th, no more word on who is being held back due to over crowding. I hope he starts, cause he is getting pretty bored on hold. His dad gets back from Afganistan this sunday, so we are planning a week-end trip down to GC the first week-end in Feb before he starts classes!
Hope all you moms and your sailors are doing well!

Well Thursday our sailors are back in the classrooms. They will be going over class policy and procedures and such. Power school class doesn't start until Monday. My son went out supply shopping over the weekend. He says he is looking forward to going back to class. Those are words that noone would ever hear out of my mouth when I was younger. I never liked school. I am glad he didn't take after me. .lol
Any one know our grad date yet?
