We haven't had any letters for nearly 2 weeks and his phone call 11 days ago he said they wouldn't have time to mail their letters. Hopefully we get 2 letters this week :) I'll post all the pics that we have. It's great that they are in the same div. I love that they were stood next to each other at MEPS and end up in the same div. We couldn't of planned it better if we'd tried :) We have to get pics of them together at PIR in their uniforms.
I'm so excited to see them

Ship 9 Div 328 Good morning, Have any of your SR's received any mail? I got my first letter from my daughter yesterday and she mentioned that she has yet to receive any mail. I have sent a least a dozen letters since we first got her mailing address from her recruiter. 40 Days and Counting down!

I spoke with my son on Monday and he hadn't gotten anything at that point. I'm hoping by this week they have received some. I've sent 15 plus first 7 again as they had wrong address and I was worried he wouldn't get them, so that makes a total of 22 lol. He'll think I'm crazy I'm sure but I don't care :)

Hi Everyone
Hoping we all get our mail and calls this week. I received my first letter yesterday.He said he adjusted quickly thanks to the time he spent in ROTC in high school and that he was able to impress the RDC's!.? He said those who haven't adjusted are yelled at a lot. My son said he was just breezing thru and that bootcamp was not hard at all (he might not want me to worry?). He said he's always glad he can help those who have had a little trouble. Passed his swimming and a physical test was to follow. He says he's a good marcher and that he can sound off (yell loud). He was also being so thankful for supporting him and giving him the values we did because that was why he was able to withstand the harshness of the RDC's and the sadnes of being away from home. Well im so glad to hear he has been doing okay that gives me a Peace of Mind. : )
39 Days to goooo !!!

I got a letter and so did my 5 year old daughter. I don't think he had received his from us. His biggest complaint was that he gets no news of the outside world. Ladies that real letter is gonna be a huge relief to you. And I mean a huge relief.
