Congrats GP, you should be proud.

My sailor got orders today. Upon completion of ELT training, reports to the SSN Boise, Norfolk Va.

The new nuke sailors are getting the hard sell to re up. No tax on the bonus if deployed in the right location and ship. Up to $75K to sign. So far my sailor has said no but he says a lot of shipmates are signing. I've got mixed feelings, wanting him to come home and wanting him to succeed financially and career wise. It's tough in what to tell him. (though as a teenager I couldn't tell him anything ;-)

My daughter graduated prototype in March. While she was there, there was an issue with the plant that caused a tin of folks to be delayed. Not at all surprising that it would domino down the line

My son and Daughter in law both Nukes graduated Power school in late April and are being told that they will have at least six months before they go to prototype. Daugher in law is takiing college courses and son is doing work on base as needed.

David's Mom- Thx for your rapid response. Sounds like good info; I have already passed it along to my sailor. Kind regards, RB

John J- Our son graduated Power Sch February; he was told 4 mo delay then; now the estimate is July to November start. He has enjoyed the last two months or so at King's Bay with some training at the TTF(Trident Training Facility).

RBart: Our daughter graduates Power School in June and says there is a 5-6 month delay in prototype. When does your son graduate?

Does anyone have good info re: housing near Ballston Spa? My son will be heading up there in June. Thanks for sharing any experiences that he might find helpful.

David's mom is right, I miss read the posts.  Power School graduation is what I was talking about.  We did receive an invitation to Power School grad, a really nice ceremony as I said, outdoors and very special.

I dont remember getting an invitation other than the information he gave us. I think they get a little break the week before graduation, all the tests are done. They spend the week getting Petty Officer training, RESPECT progam etc. Have fun!
