- Vanessa wasn't that awesome we got Hall of Fame... Phillip didn't tell me either so it must have been a group decision...haha!!!!

Comment by Vanessa on July 9, 2008 at 6:43pm - Hi everyone. PIR was great. Being a shy person, I didn't get to meet many people from the group. I saw a lot of you though. Congrats on all recruits now becoming "the Navy" as the reviewing commander stated. Liz is now in Pensacola for 5 weeks. She knew her div made Hall of Fame, but didn't tell me because she wanted it to be a suprise.. She was holding the Ohio flag and was the shortest one.

Hello everyone! I see we all made it home safely. I miss Phillip terribly and it is so hard because he is still at GL and there is no communication ... He will be allowed to call on weekends but cant have his laptop or cell phone... I almost wished he were going to A school instead of washington DC cause he want be able to have those thing's there either. At least not until he get's done with the CG boot camp... that is another 2 months AFTER he start's CG boot camp and no telling how long he will be on hold at GL I certainly hope it isn't a long time.
We certainly had a heck of a ride but it was well worth it... Imiss all of you as well.... I just wish i could have met more of you.... I think our PIR being on Thurs really; messed up alot of people with taking time off and getting in late on wed and so forth ... everyone was exhausted .... I know i was tired when i got there....LOL well let's all keep in touch in the discussion section " where is your sailor" HUGS to you alll

Comment by Teri (Henry's Mom) on July 8, 2008 at 10:13pm
- Hi Everyone, Sorry we missed Flannigan's. But wasn't PIR wonderful? Henry was sick for 3 of the 5 days we had him. He wouldn't go be checked because he said they'd keep him. He wasn't eating or drinking at first, but by the 3rd day he was eating and drinking fluids. By 4th and 5th day he was himself again. But leaving was so hard again. No orders yet..Suppose to be San Antonio TX for A school. Patiently waiting.. Hope all is well with everyone. Keep in touch.

Thanks Maegan for the info....Cody got package A, DVD and Yearbook and also a couple of frames. Came to $219.
This is so weird.... The pending transaction of $272 has
disappeared from the online statement... but I'm glad !!!!
