Tina-Nick's Mom replied to Beth's discussion 'OCS' in the group New Moms Stop Here"Beth - I started a sub-group under Navy4Moms "OCS Graduate Moms" specifically for the January 30, 2011 (Class 09-11) a month or so before my son left for OCS. After awhile, someone in the group suggested we start a Facebook page, and…"
Tina-Nick's Mom replied to Beth's discussion 'OCS' in the group New Moms Stop Here"Beth - Although there is a lot of information on the Navy4Moms site, you may want to check out the Facebook page that was started by/for family and friends of your son's OCS class. Here's a link to that page: …"
Tina-Nick's Mom replied to BARBARA's discussion 'NUPOC' in the group OCS Graduate Moms"Hi Sara - My son Nick is in OCS Class 09-11 which means he's one class ahead of your boyfriend, and today he starts his fourth week of OCS. We have had one quick phone call, one very brief email, and a few letters. He's…"
Lois replied to Tina-Nick's Mom's discussion 'OCS Beginning January 30, 2011' in the group OCS Graduate Moms"HI
My son also started with 09-11 and is now in holding. He was bummed at first but is now looking at it as a chance to get stronger and do some studying before going into another class. I think he said he would be going into 10-11. I was hearing…"

I'm assuming that the shopping excursion was for those in holding and not the 9-11 OCS group; is that correct? I'm also grateful…"
violet replied to Tina-Nick's Mom's discussion 'OCS Beginning January 30, 2011' in the group OCS Graduate Moms"Isn't it funny how we still think they are kids. The oldest of the "kids" is probably 28. Frankly the older I get the more anyone under 30 looks like a kid to me. I try looking at Rachel as if she were a grown woman and I just…"
violet replied to Tina-Nick's Mom's discussion 'OCS Beginning January 30, 2011' in the group OCS Graduate Moms"Thanks Lorraine. Any info is much appreciated. We are praying for Hannah as well and are happy that she has peace about it. Violet"
Lorraine replied to Tina-Nick's Mom's discussion 'OCS Beginning January 30, 2011' in the group OCS Graduate Moms"Hi Violet,
Hannah said there were alot of kids at Bible study today. She did not mention Rachel but next time I talk to her I will ask. She said she saw all the girls exercising the other day. All looked tired but doing ok. They are all very…"
violet replied to Tina-Nick's Mom's discussion 'OCS Beginning January 30, 2011' in the group OCS Graduate Moms"Hi Lorraine, I hate to even ask, I feel like such a beggar. Did Hannah say anything else about Rachel? I sure hope she went to Bible Study this morning. Violet"

She says they do alot of exercising and cleaning. She said that other OC who are further along in the program are working with them on skills etc. It is amazing how long she can talk to me and can tell me what the others are doing. They…"
Mariellen replied to Tina-Nick's Mom's discussion 'OCS Beginning January 30, 2011' in the group OCS Graduate Moms"Hi Lorraine,
Thank you so much fo rthe update! I was pretty certain Bridget would not like her haircut. How are Hannah's spirits? I am praying for her. What do they do in holding, was she able to tell you?
Thanks again!

Lorraine replied to Tina-Nick's Mom's discussion 'OCS Beginning January 30, 2011' in the group OCS Graduate Moms"Hi Mariellen,
Just talked to Hannah again. She saw Bridget today. They only talked briefly but said she was doing ok. Bridget said that she hates her haircut !!! They made it to the point where they don't have to wear their poopie suits…"

lorilovely said… Hi Tina,
Nice to meet you, I am also on facebook, if you want to become friends there as well. Of course we will see each other at graduation, I am trying to be positive. I was glad to hear that their "Wake Up Wed." will not start until tomorrow, except that it will be bitter cold! I did not know that I would be this nervous. I have a son that joined the navy out of HS. He surprised me, but I don't remember being this nervous...

- We did hear from Ryan on that first night. It was good to hear from him. I guess we won't hear anything now for about 4 weeks, right? And that we are to remember that no news is good news. I remember reading that from one of the places I have wandered in this site! Have a great day.

- No- my son graduated from Erskine this past May. He has so many friends though that graduated from there. He was down there visiting many times. Did you hear from Nick yesterday? Ryan called us in the morning right before he walked in so we are thinking that is why we didn't get the " I made it here" phone call. Sounds like this week will be one of the worst for our guys. I will be praying for both of them.

- Nice to meet you Tina! I was excited to see that Nick had graduated from Clemson and was so close. Who knows, maybe our sons will get to know each other as well. It would be nice to meet sometime. I am still trying to figure out how to maneuver this forum. I haven't taken the plunge to facebook but it might also be a good way to keep in touch with other moms. Hope your day is going well,

- Welcome to N4M’s. This site is full of information, support and encouragement. My son graduated boot camp Jan 29, 2010 and is now stationed in Sicily Italy as an IT.
If your profile or profile name contains last name (even if it is different from your rct/sailor)your rct/sailors first name or your e -mail address, I recommend that you change it for the safety of your sailor. Remember, this is a public site and anyone can become a member and read comments posted here.
Be wary of who you friend…before you accept a friend go to their page and see how active they are, the comments left, groups they’ve joined. If they have a lot of friends but no groups, no comments, click ignore and DO NOT FRIEND THEM…it is likely they are spammers, e-mail address harvesting
