<p>So far E2orC2, with his preference being E2, but there's constant talk about switching him to Strike. It's enough to make you crazy. I wish they'd just make a decision. He'd be thrilled to switch, but he's thrilled to be doing his advanced training for E2/C2. So he's happy either way as long as he's in the air! We will see how it all plays out!</p>
<p></p>
<p>Congratulations on your nephew! That is truly a huge achievement!</p>

<p>The RAG is about a year. He will CQ again and then patch into his first operational squadron. The C2 is in transition to the MV-22:</p>

<p>My son was in Meridian (and winged there), same training for jets as Kingsville. E2's are based in Norfolk,VA, Pt. Mugu, CA, and Iwakuni Japan.</p>

<p>My nephew is a Hawkeye NFO and is now the Commodore of the E2/C2 fleet. His change of Command Ceremony was last month at Pt. Mugu. It's a very beautiful area. My wife and I attended with my son (he was able to fly a cross country in an F/A-18E!). </p>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Funny you should ask. He just did his winging ceremony on Saturday. Off to Norfolk now. Exciting times. Congratulations on you son, I'm sure he's crazy busy with that!</p>

<p>Melissa,</p>
<p></p>
<p>How is your son doing? Should be winged by now? My son is in his squadron (F/A-18E) working hard. </p>

<p>The OBOGS problems are a serious concern. The pipeline has a life of it's own---you can follow the schedule, which is cool. Many pilots say the pipeline is the best time in a Naval Aviator's career!</p>

<p>Wow, congratulations! My son is moving to Corpus Saturday. It may be a long process for him with the backlog due to the T45 problems! I know you're proud of your son. What a great accomplishment!</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>My son is just happy to be flying. I think he's leaning towards C2 right now, but you know how it goes..."needs of the Navy"! </p>

<p>Where is your son in his training? </p>

<p>My son wanted (and was selected for) jets. I wanted him to go C2! </p>

<p></p>
<p>If E2, he will be in a squadron. C2's are detachments of two planes assigned to a carrier air wing (I think).</p>
