Welcome all of the families and friends of this class. This is an open discussion, so post!
Week 1 is in the books..on with week 2. Email is working! Hope for calls soon. Week 2 calls were received! Emails are coming a little faster. On to Nov 12th (mid week 4)and RLP! Happy Veterans Day to all our troops. Good luck tomorrow 07-10! WE are here for you! Hearing that many have passed RLP-congratulations to your LO's. For those that have rolled we know you can do this also! Wow we are on a a roll-week 5 passed quickly and quietly-lots of studying and a couple of tests. 100% pass-great job 07-on to Firefighting, Buttercup, ORLP and mid-PFA! We are looking forward to Thanksgiving as I am sure your LO's are also.
Coralreef - 05 & 06 both had ORLP week 6 and PI week 8....but who knows, things have seem to be changing at OCS all the time. I just thought I would give you some insight on the upcoming inspections.
Congrats to 07, glad to hear you all go good news!
YEAH!!! My DH, Eduardo, passed!!!! I am so glad . I feel like I can breathe again!! Congrats to all in 07 annd for those who didn't pass don't worry REST in the Lord his timing is perfect!! I know because Eduardo failed the first one and there is always good in the bad even though it may not seem like it now.
Amanda D passed also, heard through her boyfriend yesterday who is stationed in japan - she trades calls, one week us, one week him and then we pass it on. congratulations to all who did pass, what a relief! What is ORLP?
Does anyone know if we can send photos? Would there be a problem if I sent a set in one of those bubble envelopes? Or maybe just send a few in each letter? Thanks for any info.
I sent photos in with my letters all the time. Sam said it wasn't a problem and he loves getting them--especially since our youngest is 4 months old and changing every day. I think if you sent them in a bigger envelope it might have to be opened in front of the DI, but as long as there isn't contraband in there it's fine. I say send away!
My suggestion is that you send a few in each letter rather than all at once in a bubble envelope. As Drea said...that would likely have to be opened in front of the DI...letters don't. Also, it would be a treat to get pictures frequently instead of all at once. My son really enjoyed the few pictures I sent...kept asking for one of our dog...LOL...but I never did send one...kept forgetting.
I have sent numerous pictures of our dogs, calling them the Bailey and Bentley Chronicles. I got those stickers with little blurbs on them and stick them on the pictures like the dogs are talking. If I do say, they are awfully cute and pretty funny. I'm hoping they at least bring a smile to Michaels face and I'm pretty sure they do. He loves those dogs!
