Ken and Joe - congrats to your Sailors!  BZ to them!

mlongst - best of luck to your son tonight with his boards!

Mine was given a date of 6/9 to go "on-crew" and they take their "off-crew" exam on Thursday.  Just hoping that everything keeps moving along ok.

mlongst,  Best of luck to Mike.  I know exactly how you're feeling.  The finish line is so close now.  I'm sure he will do well.

KenH, Congrats!  I wonder if my son and yours graduate together (June 6, GC)?  Mine passed his boards a couple weeks ago as well.  As you say, it has been a LONG ride starting back in Apr 2012.   Proto has been especially trying due to the instructor scandal.  He had ~60 checkouts invalidated.

KenH,   congratulations to your son.  It has been a long haul.  Mike takes his boards tonight.  Fingers crossed but he should do fine.

My son finished his proto boards a couple weeks ago, still a couple of weeks till graduation. Then he finally gets some leave, and on to CVN-70. I'm so proud and relieved. He started boot camp 27 months ago. It was a long ride.
Very best of luck to your sailors, and enjoy the weekend, mindful of what Memorial Day is about.

Hi everyone.....we spoke with our sailor last night.  He thought he was going "On-crew" soon but said it has now been extended possibly a week or two - but still should be sometime in June.  So far things are going well.....getting sign-offs and managing to stay a little ahead of the curve.  We're trying to figure out a time to send his little brother to visit - he wants to take him to the Baseball Hall of Fame too!

Bob - that's a fine looking nuke you have there!  That's great that you were able to be there for the graduation.

Welcome Mark!

Happy Monday All!

A long road has been navigated. Our Matt Graduated from Nuclear Proto Type at Ballston Spa, NY on Fri 5/2 with 126 of his Shipmates. Matt is going to stay on at the Command as an Instructor (SPU) and begins his Instructor training on Monday.

 

So darn proud of Matt and all the young Men and Women who completed the Program. Bravo Zulu to all!
