I heard from my son last Friday but not on Sunday. He actually received a lot of time...he was able to call me, dad and his sister. He let me know then that that call was instead of Sun and not to expect another call. He also said some of the other recruits were at swim practice if they had not passed that portion yet...I hope we hear something this weekend.

I got a letter on wed. but no phone call. My son said that his phone card kept cutting out on him. His letter said there would be a next time to call but did not say when it would be. He is excited about PIR.

I haven't heard from my SR in over 2 weeks. Instead of calling last Fri. she had to go to swim practice to practice the prone float. Maybe next week. :( at least they are all enjoying themselves. She said in her letters that they have mainly been studying and enjoying the food. I'm glad the horror stories are not real. :-) ♡

Does anyone know if we will hear from our SR after hell week or until after battle station 21? My SR last call was two weeks ago and said that she'd probably be able to call after capping ceremony . Anyone under the same impression?

After she passes Battle Stations she will call and tell you "I am a Sailor"...not sure if she will get to call before that. Sorry to not be more help!
