Thanks Rosemary!!! I really wish I could be there, but he's coming home right after so I'll see him then.
Thanks Stephanie!!! Do you know if your bf is going to NY or staing in SC? Were they planning on being roomates during Prototype?
Hi!
I'm trying to help my Sailor find housing for when he starts Prototype in Goose Creek. Does anyone have some suggestions?
Chris,
Could you please send me a private message with a phone number? I will forward that to my Sailor. Thanks!
Hello Everyone!

Hi Janice,
My son is also an MM in 0906-9! I miss him a lot but he's doing way better now that he did in the beginning. I pray for him every day.
I tried but they only send to DEPLOYED service members.
Hi Marie and Marianne
I live in Spring and have a son who's a Nuke at Goose Creek. He's starting Nuclear Power School on Aug. 6 but is home on leave right now. YAY!!!
They have a small fridge and microwave in their rooms. Don't send any decorations, they have to stay military. I send non-perishable micro meals and those Campbells soups that you can drink out of the container. I have lately been sending civilian...

- There are lots of apartment complexes and other sites for rent. My son is currently in an apartment across from the mall of Rivers. It seems like there are almost always nice apartments available there - 1, 2, and 3 bedrooms. The biggest problem is for most of the sailors is that they need a place to move or store their stuff by the day of graduation. My son and his roommate looked on Wednesday, signed a lease and moved in on Thursday and cleaned out the room right after graduation. I would be better to allow a little more time. There are other areas closer. He is moving out of there by the middle of next month. Rent and utilities where my son is for a 3 Br apt is about $150 more than the housing allowance for 1 person. It is easy to make money sharing a 2 or 3 bedroom apt. Some others in his class went together with others and rented a house near the beach a couldn't cover expenses with the housing allowance - but they aren't there for sea and sun.
