My Nick is coming home for the weekend, so I will ask him if he knows your son. I can't wait to see him. We are having about 50 people over for his birthday!!!! I am ready to party.
I got a call yesterday. He sounded great. He has duty on Sunday and will not be able to leave base. At least we will get him for the day on Friday and Saturday. Found out he is leaving Great Lakes November 2nd. Sooner than I thought. At least we c...

Hello all!! My sons understanding with prebuds was that they would stay in GL until christmas break and then go out to cornado, CA in January. We are a 6 hour drive from GL and I was hoping to visit him often while he is there. Because CA is very ...

Thanks akcarol for the schedule. That is great.
My son is in DIV 840.
Too many typos. I typed this way to fast and didn't proof read it. I am not that much of an idiot. LOL.
Got a letter too!! Basically it is all of my letters with the questions and line to fill in the blanks. Ellen I still think you got way more than me for answers. All I got is that they don't yell at him because he is not phase him because his dad ...
I am a little confused though. I have been sending the form letters with the spaces to fill in the blanks just like N4M's said, but I got nothing back??????? Just a short generic letter. I will keep trying to get my questions answered.
Got a letter yesterday. Short and sweet again. Plus I got a list of clothing items I am to bring to PIR. I can feel it. Its getting close.
My son is in DIV 840 and he got to call last night. Soooo I don't know who is in the lead. I just wrote him a extra long letter since I didn't get to talk with him and asked about the DIV competition. I will let you know if I hear anything soon.
I got a call, but I was at a concert and couldn't get to the phone fast enough. I have listened to the message a few times. It was short and sweet. I am alive and doing well. I had so many questions for him. :( I will wait for my letter on Wednesd...

Pat said… - Hi Carol, welcome to Navy for Mom's:)) You will find a lot of answers, support and encouragement here. My daughter, Ashley (20), has been in the Navy for 2 years and is an IT3 & my future son-in-law Tim (19) has been in since Feb 2008 stationed on the USS Nimitz. What will your son be doing with the Navy? If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I'm glad you joined and look forward to hearing more about you & your recruit. Pat

beachbabbs said… - Hi Carol. My son was in ship 04 div 841. I do not know if you received my post. I'm not computer savy. Still learning. He has been sent to the hospital (another ship). That was last night. Do not know much as of yet. He said he would call me back in about an hour. That was 5:15pm eastern time. As of 1:34pm today I have not heard anything. I'm a little stressed worring about him. I have to learn to put it in God's hands. He was sick when he left - 102 fever and URI. They said he would see a Dr when he got there. I got my first packet of letters. How wonderful that was, then the phone call. I wish I new what was going on. At least I have work to keep my mind off things for now. I just want to get home and check my voice mail to see if for some reason he or someone else called the home instead of the cell.

Carolyn said… - Hi Nick's Mom. My son Terry is also Ship 4, DIV 840. I have gotten 2 letters so far, hopefully another today. His girlfriend gets more letters than me. HA! Terry seems to be doing well. States that since they will be staying in Great Lakes after PIR, that they will be able to be with us Friday night, Saturday, and Sunday. He didn't say, but I think they have to be back at base at night. His letters are short, but so far he seems to have a positive attitude. He is only 18 and said that he seems to be one of the only ones leaving home for the first time. But, the group is so big (70, I think), I wonder if they have gotten to know everyone yet.
