Boot Camp

[Jeffrey K Reed]

My son has been in since July 23 at Great Lakes and we still haven't got a letter or card yet has anyone else received a letter yet. I know no news is good news but we are anxiously awaiting a letter.

 

Thanks

looking forward to PIR our son has been writing and we recieved one yesterday. He is transferring to A school across the street in Great Lakes.

[Troy Klevgard]

So is ours... we are trying to figure out how to get him his laptop being that he isn't allow to bring it back until Monday....Anyone have ideas on that?

[Jeffrey K Reed]

Since they are moving into there A School on Friday after graduation apparently they can get there laptop and other items to take to new base.

[Troy Klevgard]

I was under the impression that they would not be moving in until Monday...

[Jeffrey K Reed]

My son just sent a letter informing us that graduation day they would be moving there stuff to across the street it would take approx 4-5 hrs and then he would be able to go on liberty the rest of the day until around 8 pm. And then would have the rest of the weekend for liberty until 8 pm .

With the reminder that they may have to stand a watch during the weekend-- they do check in after PIR

[Jeffrey K Reed]

Thank you for your input it is much appreciated, we will check with our son about any instructions he was given after PIR.

 

Thank you

[NavyDads Admin (Paul)]

Make sure you allow enough time for him to walk back and muster each evening- being late is a great way to loose liberty--- he will have instructions when you pick him up after checking in

[Jeffrey K Reed]

Thank you for the info we will make sure we have all his instructions before liberty each day.

 

Thank you

Less than two weeks until PIR.  I can't wait.  I just wish that I had more time, but because of conflicting committments I won't be able to stay for the weekend.  I just hope that we have some quality time on Friday and Saturday morning, before I have to fly home. My daughter is on SHIP 04 DIV 303.  I told her about your sone also, Troy.  She says that they all train together, so she probably knows him, or at least knows who he is.
