Hi NausetMom:
We are going to drive, leaving Wednesday. I just haven't broken the news yet to my principal that I need off 3 days.. LOL, That Monday is a Holiday (Columbus Day) and in our school district you can't take off before a holiday......
I can't believe 36 days!!!!! I think too, maybe letters are in the mail for us here back at home.

Hard to believe that NEXT month they graduate. I am sure it will not come too fast for our SR! Thinking of my daughter and all of your SR that they continue to progress and do well. They should be proud for what they they have done so far. Peace to all of you.

Could the last name be different than Yuchalic? Our name sounds like. It is a tough one to spell!! Can't post it here for security but you could private message me. My son is in charge of the 338 division.

Hello Everyone! This is my first reply to this discussion and I'm very excited about the upcoming PIR of 10/11/13!!!
This is my second son going through Navy Boot camp and is 12/338. My first son graduated 10/8/11, was 03/335 division and is currently stationed on the USS Carl Vinson. This son will stay in Great Lakes for his A school after graduation. Looking forward to meeting some of you. I am still friends with many mom's I met the first go around. This is a fantastic place to learn information and get support!
