My son returned to NAS Pensacola yesterday. Reluctantly, he packed and was not ready at all to go back. Very hard day for him. Currently, he is in phase II now and has more freedom, but the waiting and not really having a schedule has zapped his enthusiasm. His motivation is not there. He is rescue swimmer candidate and waiting has never been easy for him.
Has anyone else out there experienced this with their sailor? I'm really concerned about him. He's not one to share so Im sure he's not discussed this with the other guys.
Does anyone know of a mentor or soundingboard for these guys that are struggling?
Thanks for any advice.

Go under Members and type in Brad and the one with the Dad and son together in the photo is the Brad I am talking about. Good luck!
You should talk to Brad. His son Garret is a Rescue Swimmer. He could really give you some great advice.
