Navy Dads

My sons PIR date is scheduled for 3-21-14.  I'm going to keep this as short as possible.  His girlfriend (whom refuses to call us back)   posted on the dreaded facebook that our son may not be graduating due to his A school be to full.  He has been in DEP since june or july and had to sign up for an extra year for his A school.  Now the Navy is apparently telling him he doesnt get it.  If this is true, what are his options if he d oesnt like the other jobs they offer him?

Carl, I am sorry that you have to go throught this situation. Yes as a 20 year veteran that was the reason I decided to retire early. The Navy has really lost control on its operations and instilling Honor, Courage and Commitment in their organization. As a concerned parent, if it was me, I would pick him up in the airport and ride w/ him to the debrief and find out exactly what's going on. And yes, hold that natural insting of cursing like a sailor for the time being. j/k. Best of luck sir...

and for the record,, I think parents come first in phone calls, than the GF,, its not like their married or anything. my son was really good about this,,and I have a feeling your son does not know she's posting it all over the network,,maybe you need to let him know about that too, so he knows he's whole life is being broadcast..  also, you need to ask him in a calm voice, lol,, "Son, is this what you really want to do, or are you having second thoughts, because you only get one chance and girls come and go, and in the end, you may regret your decision when you find out its too late to get rolling!"  mom to dad tip! :) blessings.
