...and the wife is climbing the walls. Our son, Brian, ship 2, DIV 945 hasn't written or called in over two weeks. We're 10 days from PIR and flying up from Florida, and sure would like to know he's okay.

My son is in the same DIV and ship. Paul is correct "no news is good news". I think that some times they are just too wiped out to write. They know where they are and what they are doing during boot camp, and they just forget that the rest of us (parents, family and friends) tend to worry. We are use to hearing from our kids more often. Hang in there.
Hopefully, you found out the things that you needed to know to help your piece of mind. Go to the website listed below (or above ) and click on "get gate pass"

Get gate pass
You will need the password that was on the original letter sent to you by your son indicating the list of Indended Guest.
The password will be on the top of the second page.
Good luck.
