Navy For Moms

Does anyone else have a child graduating 4/18? We've bought plane tickets, reserved a car and hotel rooms. We fly out late Thursday night (11pm flight) which will land us in Chicago around 5am. Just in time to freshen up at the airport and drive to the graduation!

Emilie is Ship 9 Div. 154

We get our information through this network. None of us know anything! Some mothers have been through the boot camp/graduation themselves or 2 kids. Navy for Mom moms know lots of information. I have learned sooo much. I feel less isolated now because I know what's going on --roughly--and am not upset when I don't get mail from my daughter. Between her and all of you, I understand that she cannot write often and often they all lose their phone privileges because their 'room ' is not clean enough or they all talk too much!! Keep checking in --

Nice to meet you, Winston. Sounds like you have your plans set for PIR. I also know nothing about Chicago - I've been hitting up our local libraries, trying to find some books about the area. Got a couple and glad I did. If you have AAA, ask if they have info they can give you. I plan to go there soon.
See you at PIR!

I am at Comfort Inn also, I know zero about Chicago/Great Lakes area. I hope the place is clean, and well, clean and comfortable. Apparently, it is very close by the base.

Wow! I thought my son was the only one on Ship 12 Division 158. How is your son doing on this ship? My son Derek is doing okay but sent a letter to me that he talked back to the APROC because he was disrespecting a few people, he filed a complaint and has to go talk to the RDC about the events. He said if I dont get ASMODED for talking back and beating the _ _ _ _ out of the APROC for what he did, I guess I'll see you on the 18th. So now I dont know what is going to happen. Anyone any thoughts????????
