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!

Scott-- we will all be cheering him on. It's great to hear stories of how these young people come alongside each other--- those "skills" will serve them well for a lifetime. May your son find strength within himself that he was previously unaware of, and friends who will continue encouraging him.

Is the meet and greet just for parents or for children as well, and can I bring with me my parents who will be with us?
Stephen said:Hi Donna, just reviewing older posts. My wife Laura and I are also staying at the Navy Lodge and plan to go to Sarge's Meet-N-Greet @ the Sundance Saloon on thursday night. I don't have a preference as to which M-N-G we go to. It would be nice to meet you and the other parents.

Frederick, my son is also Ship 04 Div 802. He was able to place a short phone call (9 minutes according to my cell phone) on Thursday, 10/25 at 5:28PM (central).

Hi Frederick,
My son is in the same Div and we have not had a phone call either. It seems they can only write a bit on Sundays and I get a short note on Wednesdays (twice so far). It seems they are really limiting communication flow for whatever reason.

--And today (Wednesday) is the day we've been getting mail from him. Today? --Nothing.
