Navy Dads

This discussion area is for all those who have SR's currently at RTC with an anticipated PIR of 10/18/2013.

Please feel free to share any questions, comments, concerns as we all share the experience of supporting our recruits through the process of becoming part of the Global Force for Good...the U.S. Navy.

division 397 ship 12 made phone calls tonite.... they got paid friday... he sounded great. hope your recruit is sounding good to.

 

did you consider Milwaukee?  Easier airport and easier drive............

roger that...was just wondering. I've flown into Midway for a PIR and into O'Hare for the other PIR.....in both cases traffic was the pits and I've always heard Milwaukee was the way to go!!!

Flying on miles. Checked Milwaukee and couldn't get good times to come in and out.

no they do not....Give Sarge a call..........SARGE'S PHONE 847-212-0246 if you need info about transportation.......

Update on road construction from Milwaukee to Great Lakes...went through there last week, road construction still on going, but was flowing alot better than before, so if you can fly into Milwaukee it is a easier route.

Recieved a phone call Sunday night from our recruit (ship 12 div 397).  He sounded real good and told us what they are experiencing so far.  He was really upbeat about the whole experience.  Can already hear in his voice and conversation, basic is having a real positive effect on him.  Can't wait to see him at PIR, only 5 more weeks

Tuesday night and I received a call from my SR Ian Flikkema.  He sounded great; seems to be right on track all around.  He said they were in the pool today for basic survival swimming.  Almost half way there to PIR!  

when you talk to your sailors that training takes a shift now...the RDC's will not be yelling all time and the concentration will be on learning and becoming sailors!!  BS21 not far off folks!!!

and that link is on the right side fo every NavyDads page in the About This Site area: PIR (Pass In Review) Dates

Flights booked, took every ones advice and we are flying into Milwaukee.   Counting down the days!

Three weeks to go. Just checked and the Navy Lodge is full.

Thought I would do a quick roll call on who is planning on doing the Meet 'n Greet?

-Me, wife and two boys.

Looking forward to meeting you guys Chris. I have to admit, I am quite excited and looking forward to meeting my new son.
