PIR 30 December, 2009 "Navy Boot Camp Graduation"

It appears that there will be lots of us at Great Lakes on this date, God willing. I've read lots and lots of great tips for the graduation from this site and Navy4Moms... Maybe we can keep each other advised as we move forward. My son, David is in Ship 09, Div 038. I understand that PT starts today and swim test is tomorrow. God bless them all.

Hey Mark, did you hear from your son ? Sean has called a couple of times today, a buddy of his parents came out from California to spend Christmas with Their son and Sean. So they got the spend the whole day off base and going to dinner etc. Sean sounded great and is ready to hit the trail to San Antonio and see what the next chapter is.

Shane,
We did. We got a call from David this afternoon. He sounded great, had been adopted for the day by a local pub and had great food, got to see a movie and got to call home. My wife and I had the best Christmas present that we could have asked for. David still has Battle Stations yet to go (I guess there are two divisions that have it scheduled for Sunday). Things are going very well! Merry Christmas!

One of the news stations broadcasted a story of Christmas Adoption of our sailors, Bless this couple and all the others who sacrifice their own Christmas to brighten the lives of our soldiers and sailors around the world.
