DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

Hi mrstoddyboy- when is ur husband's projected grad date? Mine is Jan 15th.

Hii! My boyfriend is down there now, studying to be a Corpsman :] i wanted to go visit him at the beginning of November.. but that doesn't seem like it's going to work out :/ gotta wait until Christmas for him to come home!
Do you guys know yet where your man will be stationed at after A School?

I'm late to this discussion, but I wanted to pipe in and chat with you ladies too! My fiancé just finished corpsman A school at Fort Sam, and he's going to be there for C school for a while longer.

What is your fiance's C school for? My boyfriend is there too. What is his job?

He's doing the dental assisting program, so he'll be there for a little while longer.

So is mine! Awesome! Has he found out where is first station will be yet or does he not find out until after C school? My boyfriend is still only about a month or so into A school so he has a while to go!

He won't find out until he's a few weeks into
C school, I think. Where or what does your sailor want to do after A school? Do you plan on visiting him at Fort Sam?

Oh ok, so how long does C school last anyway? I think that he is just hoping to get stationed somewhere on the east coast (we're from south carolina) and then just like work at a clinic on base or something, but who knows. Im terrified that he is going to end up somewhere far away! :( What does your fiance want to do? Do you plan on getting married sometime soon?

My bf is currently in SA! :) His graduation frm A school is anticipated about Jan 15th. He has one week left of EMT. :)
I visited him early Oct & will be back there next week. He will be joining the marines for more training after C school, FMTB.
What class # r ur sailors in?
His C school is only 6 weeks, it'll be over before we know it. I don't know if he will go to FMTB, or to a clinic after C school. We are planning to get married very soon, and I am excited and anxious for him to find out where his next duty station is! We are hoping for somewhere on the west coast.
My sailor was in class 195/200. I remember how relieved he was when emt was finished!
Mine is class 245. He has a big exam tomorrow!! After A school, mine will hopefully go to Camp Pendleton. He will be in FMBT for another 8 weeks. But that all depends on how soon he starts his training once he arrives I guess. We r frm N. CA so San Diego will be the closest. :)
