Navy Dads

My son left for the Great Lakes November 3rd. I got the CALL yesterday saying he was there. Any other Dads out there have a son that just went in ?

My son left for RTC on Nov 3 as well. He called about 0200 the next morning telling us he made it there. On Thursday, we received the letter with details about his ship, division, etc. He's Ship 03, Div 042. Graduation is Jan 8.
Ok. I am so happy for all the parents that have recieved a call or a"letter" from their SR/ son/daughter, but how long did it take ? My daughter has been out of touch since Novdmber 24 th. I begain writing her the day she left and when I got the addressfrom the recruiter. I had seven lettters to send. Still. 24 days later and no call or letter. I am not putting my disapppointment into the out going letters. But for my self, I am weary ,anxious and longing for that first letter! AND. I know. We will be three crazy weeks out of sinc! I write knowing she will read the letters sent shout a week later so I don't seem to out of wack with the real week she is experiencing. I'm Dort of lost at the moment. It's another Friday and I'm on my way home. Hoping
I got my first letter from Sean about 2 weeks from the time he arrived in Great Lakes. First phone call was 3.5 weeks. It was really quick (so was the letter). I would bet you will hear from her anyday now. Hang in there I know it's tough.
