Navy Dads

PIR 11/30/2012

This Discussion is intended as a place where parents and other loved ones who have SRs with a PIR of 30 November to gather and meet-and-greet and talk about this adventure.  Of course, I suppose anyone is welcome. 

If anyone knows of others on facebook and navyformoms.com, please direct them this way, too.

Hopefully, this will be a place where we can share stories about phonecalls and letters from our SRs. 

And I look forward, already, to meeting all of y'all at PIR.

Sincerely,

Scott

Attention on deck!

From RTC:

There will be FIFTEEN divisions graduating Nov. 30th. RTC is abiding by the policy that Active Duty/military retirees and children twelve and under do not count toward the 4 invitations each recruit receives. However, if an individual is not on the access list they will NOT be able to enter the drill hall (NO stand by). Please plan on arriving at least two hours before the ceremony, which begins promptly at 9 a.m. Thanks to all for your continued support of Recruit Training Command, the Navy's only boot camp!

So if my son left for boot camp 10/02/2012 that means he will graduate on the 30th of nov also? Confused I haven't heard anything in a letter or a form letter should I just wait another week or do I make reservations now

Scott is so right. The Navy lodge  just asks for  notice before 6pm if you have to cancel so it is a good place to book. Here is the info in case you need it Jose.

Navy Lodge Great Lakes, Great Lakes Naval Training Center. 2500 Meridian Drive Great Lakes, IL 60088-5000. Tele: 847-689-1485.

 

I would agree with Scott on the air line tickets if you need those.
