Hello moms! My son is in 282, and his letters didn't arrive here (SC) until yesterday. It seems I've been almost the last to receive the box, form letter, and personal letters but I'm assuming that's because I live so far south. By chance is there a R*(PERSEC)here? Our sons are bunk mates and are also going to Groton together.

*(edited to remove last name PERSEC and N4M guidlines)

Hi, I don't know if Ellen or NavyMomLiz wrote this but I am brand new and my son is in 282 and his last name begins with R and he is going to Groton...

I am worried he hasn't gotten my mail because they changed ships from 2 to 6 before we realized and we sent all our letters to 2.

Do you know if they forward mail?

We just got our call also :) He sounded great!!

They pulled all four of his wisdom teeth Tuesday...but, thank God, he had no complications. It was sooo good to hear his voice!

I hope everyone gets to talk to their SR!

281 & 282 both got to make calls today. :) Who all got calls? I got my call from 281. My SR sounded great. Said boot camp isn't too bad. He failed his first fitness test pretty bad but did real good on the first written test. He said RDCs are working with him and he is improving quick with the fitness part. It was so nice to talk to him! They're headed to ship 6. Mail from Ship 4 should forward over easy enough. He said he's gotten close to a few fellow SRs. Last names start with Gr, Bu, & Wi. If it could be one of your guys please send me a message so we can see if they match up!

My brother is in 281 and his last name begins with Gr. I'll try to send you a message if I can figure it out. I received a call as well. He seems to be in good spirits. He mentioned in his letter and his call that there are a lot of recruits straight out of high school that tend to chatter too much and do not address the petty officers or chiefs properly, so they are having to drop and do push-ups on a regular basis.
