We got a call yesterday. We were at the citrus bowl and had difficulty receiving. Took 3 tries to finally connect. He is really enjoying the experience, but has been pretty sick. Mentioned two guys by the name of Robinson and another one by name of Terry or something that rhymes with it. Do these names belong to any of your recruits. I think that they are sub guys.

Hi my3boys,
We are still waiting for a call also. Hoping to hear somethingsoon. I miss the "Hey Mom" also. We have also received letters, which is great but not quite the same as hearing their voice.

devon1991, we did not recieve ours either. Today we got a letter and in it our son said he would be calling the next day which would have been the 30th. I guess something caused them to not be able to or it is put off. How sweet our conversations will be when at last we hear their voices :) Waiting can make it worth even more

devon 1991 and my 3boys, We did not receive a call either. There are a number of reason that they can be skipped over for this mid camp call. If they are standing duty, have a dental or medical appointment, test scores, etc.. Still keep my phone fully charge and on me at all times just in case. :) Received a letter last night and my son said that they are keeping very busy with tests, inspections and fitting for their dress blues. He also said that they are now in a regular routine and the days are moving by much faster.

Happy New Year to all you Navy Mom's and Dad's out there. Thanks to all of you for sharing. Didn't know about this site when my first son enlisted a couple years back. Has been so helpful this second time around with my youngest. My oldest is now stationed at Pearl Harbor after 2 years on the Constitution in Boston. So proud of both of our boys. Here's wishing all our recruits a safe and Happy New Year!
