The day is just around the corner....April 9th is the day my son is sworn into the Navy and heads to bootcamp.   I hope and pray he will be ok and will be anxiously waiting to get the quick call that he made it to bc.

Eleanor: That is so sad, but sometimes that call doesn't arrive just because of the check-in process (phone lines too long, delays etc)  I'm sure he's worried that YOU are upset, so send strength, positive thoughts and endurance to him.  He's fine, really, really. Our call was 2:00 am west coast time, and was brief: "Hi, it's me, I'm here, love ya, bye"  I could here guys yelling: get off the phone-move along-get off the phone!  Blessings to your son, and please join other groups here for more support.  (Boot Camp Moms, Moms from your state or area? etc)  Also: start writing letters and save 'em up to mail day by day-soon you'll get his address via a letter from him (NOT the one on his box of clothes/shoes-you'll get that in a few days-if you are his 'contact' address?  OR in a few days, call his recruiter & get his address (it will be a 'ship' name-that's the barracks) Recruiters can discover this info & are SUPPOSE to support families to some degree, during Boot. Think positive and joyful thoughts (I know its difficult, believe me)   Blessings to your boy !
