Welcome Pben, My son is Ship 12 Division 079. Start and completed dates are the same. This is my second go round. My oldest son is in the navy also. Have you heard from your son yet? From the letters I have received it sounds like things are going good for their divisions.

Hi Selms,
My son is in Div 080/Ship 12. I am counting the days to see him again! Yesterday was his first phone call home.
Almost didn't answer the call because I didn't recognize the no! Actually I didn't answer the first time & when the no popped up a 2nd time, I did answer. Thank God! He wasn't able to call the first time they were allowed because he had had wisdom teeth pulled and was SIQ (?) Recuperating :)

Does anyone know how pictures and the DVD ordering works? Our son took a small amount of money, but not nearly enough to cover ordering pictures. Will there be opportunity to order again if he did not feel comfortable doing so? So many "mom worries" My wonderful husband keeps telling me that I need to not worry, it will all work out. Probably should listen to him :)
Thanks for any info that can be passed along

my3boys, I just answered the same question on the main comment wall. :) They are given a "recruit card" when they arrive and if they have opened a NFCU account they will receive that debit card during BC.
Your husband is correct, it will all work out, they are taken care of. As for worrying...you will always worry that is our job.

To: My3boys, Perhaps they will continue making calls today because my son said there are more recruits than phones so it seems likely that not everyone could call last night.
