I'm a newbie!
Hello!
Can any one out there advise me, what is the best way to find out the graduation date from bootcamp? My son arrived last week Thursday am, very early. Do I just wait to hear from my son, or is there a quicker way?
Thanks,
Paul's mom

Welcome!!! You will get a form letter in a week or so with his address, ship/divison, grad date, password for gate pass if you plan to attend and a few lines from him. You can call the recruiter for the TEMPORARY address. It may not be quite right d/t they move during processing days. But if you post his division we can figure out his PIR (Pass In Review=graduation) date. Most likely he will graduate 3/30. That PIR group has formed. I'll leave you the link and you can join. Lots of info there...read the discussion forum. If that's your grad date....great. if not, just leave that one and join the next.
