    I can only relay my PIR weekend experience... Forgot my vehicle pass at home... Of the four times that I drove on base, I was never was asked to show my vehicle pass but required to show an ID card... After passing thru the gate, you are guided to a vehicle inspection point after which you are guided to a parking spot on the parade grinder and ushered into MCPON Hall. At this point you will be asked who your sailor is and they will check to see what names are listed. I saw several families with more than 4 guests. Their only requirement for the additional guests was to provide valid IDs. This a big event for families and the Navy is not going to turn down a chance to show off their new sailors if there are seats available. This was davids dads response. in another discussion

    You should have already received your packet. Ours came on Saturday, and his PIR isn't until Sept. 12......................you might want to drop your son a quick line or check with his recruiter to see if he heard anything from your son or RTC.

    Billy you should have already gotten this. It should have came in the grad packet. You should have received it within the first few weeks of Ricky's arrival at Great Lakes.
