I have been really lucky so far. Our recruitor was wonderful. My son left on Monday 7/27 - the recruitor gave me his address on Thursday 7/30- "the box" on 7/31 - I got the letter from the Captain on 8/3 - and a call from my son today 8/5. I just ...
I am soooooo excited !! I got a call from my son today ! He left on July 27th. Really the only reason I got the call so soon was because they needed more information and only I had it. What ever the reason I don't care. I got to talk with him for ...

I know how you feel. My son left on July 27th. I got his address 4 days later from the recruitor, so I have been sending letters. I have asked around on this site and they say you'll get a letter in 2 - 2 1/2 weeks and maybe a call in 3 weeks. It'...
I can't wait to get my first letter !! I too would like to know what week "hell week" is.
WOW !! It is sooo wonderful to hear that great news !! My son just started boot camp July 27th and I have been worried to death. It's reassuring to know that everything will be okay !! Congradulation !
What city are you in? Our recruiter also handled all of this prior to my son leaving for boot camp on July 27. I read through his book and saw the page with what all was needed and went back to the recruitor office to make sure everything was in o...

- Hi Kimberly,
After getting your post I spoke with my son's recruiter and he was able to provide me with my son's ship info etc. However he was not sure on how it should be labeled on the envelope. Can you help me out with that?

- Hi Kimberly,
Yes...We will have to keep in touch as I'm sure we're going through much of the same emotions. I am mailing several letters to Hunter today. I hope he doesn't get in trouble, because they're a bit thick. They are all in regular sized plain white envelopes, but I included stamps, envelopes, rubber bands, jokes, labels...Again, HOPE HE DOESN'T GET RAZZED FOR IT! I can't wait til I get a letter and/or call either! I'm so curious as to how he's doing...Is he mad, is he sad, is he loving every minute of it??!! The longest he's ever been away from me is a week at a church retreat, but I knew he was coming back!

- I Kimberly. My son left for BC on July 27th also! Have you heard from him or received the box yet? I received the box yesterday, but nothing else since his call to me at O'Hare. I can't wait for the first letter either! I'm just waiting to know his address so I can send all the letters I've already written! How about you?
