Mortals or not, we Dads still wonder what's going on. My wife has our daughter's Recruiter's cell number on her phone and texts him when she's got a question. He usually answers within minutes, and is very accommodating with information and guidance. I guess some of them don't realize that beyond the Recruit is also a Navy family. He trained our daughter quite well, and now the ship's Ombudsman has also worked with all the Sailors aboard. Maybe we're just lucky and have some organized people involved?

that's because NavyMoms is an official Navy site and the moms seem to be able to drag info out of our sailors better than most dads!!!

Go to navy moms and look up ship 10 div 340. A lady there posted a detailed letter from her son telling her his daily funtions from wake up untill he goes to sleep.

Hello guys
I hope your son's and daughter's are better writing then my son. We can't seem to drag any info from him. My wife wrote him a letter with nothing but questions with a space for him to circle yes or no. This way he can fill it out and send it back. LOL he has always been like this though. We could never drag info about high school either so it seems like he is doing fine. We have had one phone call and two letters. You can expect one letter a week because I think they can only do mail on Sundays if they behave.

OMG....no aiguillette???? They would look like mere mortals then....that just would not be acceptable!!!!! I know they are busy, but look at it from the parent's point of view!!!

haha- Paul.., good idea! I have that recruiter survey somewhere around here ;) ..trade that aiguillette in for a mash ladle.

Hey Chris.., Thank you! We did get 'the box' on Monday -- no form letter enclosed, which wasn't too surprising - I was counting on (or at least hoping for) help from the RS. Yeah - his dog is certainly his best friend ;)

yeah...I have a real issue with recruiters not providing that info on a timely basis...as far as I'm concerned, if the recruiter doesn't want to provide that sort of info they should head back to fleet and head down to the galley where they can "crank" for a month or two.....

augh... ..Son reported aboard RTC on 9/9 and still no form letter. Been trying to get his Ship/Div from his recruiter since Monday (they're supposedly have that info within 72 hours of reporting) - no joy. The waiting sucks. Even his dog has a letter waiting to be mailed.
