Our daughter has been in since Jan 4th. We still have not heard from her except for the 'kid in a box' and the form letter with her address. When should we expect to here from her?

typically week 3 is when you MIGHT get a call. Letters--- they are keep very busy the first few weeks- there is a lot to learn and the RDC's try to keep their minds off of home as much as possible. You write as often as possible and he will appreciate it!!
Hello i'm new to this site but I wanted to know if anyone knew how long it would be before i heard from my husband. He left for u basic on Jan 9th, the last time I heard from him is when he got to great lakes.
Drop outs. Our son said they adopted the song "Another one bites the dust." He, too, missed more phone calls due to others acting up. Otherwise, he had a good group.
We even took pix of his favorite meal--he said that was "mean." But, yes, a pix in every letter--even if it meant the dogs were on call to be photo subjects.
Hi missed his first call for some reason he had to call early which was 1:30 PM our time Pac. NW, sounded good he's halfway through says that some in his ship act like their in High School which gets them all in trouble.They started with 100 in his ship but down to low 80's now because of screw- ups and med. issues PT is hard but doing good and should pass test easily, Letters mean everything to him and really appreciates the pictures from home.
Our son Sean is on ship 03 USS Hopper I'm glad your in communication with your son wish we would get a letter haven't heard anything since he went in on the 12th also. Kinda makes us wonder if everything is going ok. We continue to write him since we got his info I guess no news is good news, there is a lot of really useful information on this site just would like to hear from him personally as to how it's going there.
Thanks again for your reply it helps to know others are going through this and what their sons and daughters experiences have been . Maybe well see you at graduation. Dan.

And a "P" day is a processing day. It does not count towards their beginning time in training.
