Hi all, My son is in his 2nd day of Boot. I am so grateful for this site. I have already learned so much about what to expect, and how to plan for the upcoming events. I look forward to reading and learning more throughout the next 8 weeks.

Navy lingo time.....bootcamp...not basic
My son leaves for basic tomorrow morning, we went bowling today with his older brother and sister this afternoon and we had an awesome time. I was able to better plan for this and answer family members questions thanks to this site.
Keith that's where we stayed last year for our sailor's PIR you won't be disappointed. They offer PIR shuttle service (taxi cabs) and a buffet style breakfast too...

My son also called today. My wife and I enjoyed a 10 minute conversation with him. This is the second Saturday in a row that he has been able to call. He has a friend who left a week before him and graduates on 12/28. His parents have yet to recieve a phone call other than the initial "I'm here, I'm ok" call. I guess it really up to the discrection of the drill sergeant on how often they get to call out.
I made reservations at the Springhill Suites by Marriot and got a better rate than what I found online by calling the hotel directely. I was able to get a King suite at $89.00 a night with the "Navy Graduation" discount.
He sounded much better than his first call home.
He is in ship 03. Div 52
He said all was good .
