Glenn,

 

Got my sons call two days prior to his PIR last month. No news is good news and there would have been a call to you if something was not right.

We were actually en route to Great Lakes last Wednesday when we got our call (our son's PIR was Friday 10/7). But our son had told us approximately when he would call. I would expect you should get your call this afternoon. Enjoy your trip. PIR is something you will never forget.

We had an 13 hour drive and didn't get our call until we were in our hotel room! Congratulations and enjoy your time.

Thanks guys! I'm trying to keep the faith. Hate to step away from the phone even for a minute, but I have to take the dog to the kennel!

Glenn, I got mine at 1:45 pm PST yesterday. I know exactly how you feel. All of these negative thoughts just kept coming into my mind. My son went through BS 21 Monday night into Tuesday. No details. he just sounded tired. Hang in there.

Glenn . . . we're in the same boat - so to speak. My son is in Div. 348, Ship 3. I was hoping to hear from him first thing this a.m. after he completed BS21. I, too, am anxiously awaiting his call.  Have a safe trip to Great Lakes. My wife and I are driving up from near Kansas City in the morning as well.

No reports either from Ship 3/Div 347...

Now hear this: Just got the phone call ... HE PASSED BS21 and will graduate on time ... and we'll be there! I'm soooo relieved. Sorry, folks, for getting kinda squirrely there when I was almost freaking out! Great to have the support ... and good luck to you other people still waiting to hear!
