    Rick- I see you are a scout leader, well small world I am also. I just stepped down from Scoutmaster as both of my sons are Eagle Scouts and I am also. My son Jason is at bootcamp now with a PIR of 2 Jan 09. Good to see the picture of your profile as I an a retired Sr Chief and I like it. Jason signed up for Nuke and we will know his rating here before long.

    Sumner signed up for regular NAVY. He has 4 year active and 4 years inactive duty. I think he is a bit bored right now but school just started so he wil be very busy soon.

    Those are some nice shots on your page I may copy some as I had some focusing problems with my camera at the PIR.

    I know when I get the letters everyone within hearing distance will have to listen to me read it outloud over and over. I did the same thing when my son was in the Army...

    I just called recruiter and they said they have no way to find out the info...I told her that someone already knew, but she said they may have let them call home and tell them. Oh well..I have to be patient and wait for the first letter or phone call. I am guessing since she said she would not call for about 3wks, thats when I can expect my first letter also???

    No I have no idea about her ship or division, I am going to try the recruiter today....I got the box on Fri...and she just put a little I love you on the flap.....I cant wait til I can write her
