Hi Veleda, 12 weeks sounds like the Navy's "hurry up and wait!" I'm going to order one too. Thanks Lynn.

Hi Lynn, I ordered one but the website said it takes 12 weeks to get it. So I am waiting on mine to arrive.

Tonya, I still don't know when/if Dan can come home for any holiday-t-giving or Christmas. He's supposed to leave P-cola on Friday, but when he went to start the checking out process on Monday afternoon, the office was closed and won't be open until tomorrow because of the holiday and tropical storm/hurricane going through. He has to report right before Thanksgiving to his duty station. The plan was he would come home between leaving p-cola and reporting, but he hasn't been able to check anything. I am very sure it is just way too expensive to come home so soon, so maybe Christmas. But, he has to get to his duty station, then put in for leave. It may not work. So, we are learning very quickly that it is all hurry up and wait. Poor guy, he's pretty frustrated. AND, you're right, how do these young sailors with families afford the changes/last minute stuff??? You have a right to vent.
