Congratulations to your son Michael B, that's the best call! We got ours on Thursday while we were stranded at the Denver airport trying to get to PIR. Sounds like your group was a little farther ahead.

Coach D, hope your get together is better than ours. My wife did the same thing on Navy Moms and then we were too late to go to Flanagans. From what I heard the only ones who made it drove or got there early. But it will be Spring, so hopefully your weather will be better.

And Keith, definitely write, even if you just send them jokes or trivia off the internet. It's not what's in the letter, but that you were thinking of them and they get to connect with home.

The last letter I sent to my daughter, Number 45, got there just before Battlestations. She had been having a bad day and was worried about that night, and then she read my last letter. It was one of those "I'm so proud of you and know you've got this made," kind of things. I got a little carried away with the emotion on that one. Anyway, later she told me that letter carried her through and she thanked me profusely. She kept that one with her when she gave us the rest of her letters to take home. All I can say is I was glad to help!

Thats good news Keith. They can get letters almost everyday but they can only send letters on Sundays. I sent letters almost every day. My son said the letters from home really helped.

I haven't posted here in awhile . My son Jeff was wainting for his contract to come . I totally forgot about " hurry up and wait" . He is set to ship to bootcamp on November 3 2009. Such a long way off but such a short amount of time too . Congrats to all the dad's that have them in there already or have PIR'd.
