Posted in status last night and didnt give me the characters for everything I needed. Still new and figuring the site out. Anyway, son leaves from Nashville, TN on 04Feb2013. Anyone else leaving this week? From what I read we can count 8 Fridays from then for PIR. Is this fairly accurate? Have I mentioned how proud we are? Oldest graduates college in May and youngest from Navy boot and A School. Great year.

I just got the second call (the "I'm OK" call) from my son in Ship 14 DIV 093. We only had 6 minutes, but it was great to hear from him! He mentioned that he may ship out to A school right after graduation and our time may be limited before he leaves. Anyone else hear that? I was under the impression that he would have at least a day with us to hang out within 50 miles of the base.
Got a call from my SR today. He's competed the FAST program and is now in Ship 13, Division 104. Anyone else have family in this division?
Well my son Nick shipped out yesterday to bootcamp at Great Lakes Ill. Bitter sweet, now I know how my mom felt when I left back in '87. He's going to do great, I know. He is a lot better prepared than I was. So very proud! I know the Navy is a little strong today! I pray the Lord to give him strength, courage and confidence. Love you son, your always in my heart.
First time blogger here. Has anyone gotten a second call yet ? I've been getting letters , but hoping for a call.
