I need some logistical advice. My son is graduating bootcamp and will be heading down to Goose Creek this weekend. We are going up for PIR, but the next weekend, his first at NNPTC, is the Veteran's Day long weekend. We don't live that far from Charleston so, if he can get any kind of liberty, either we or his brother are planning to go down there. If that is the case, it wouldn't seem worthwhile hauling his laptop up to Chicago -- he can live without it a few more days.
Is that a feasible plan or is he likely to be sequestered?
Yeah, this really gets discouraging. My sailor went through the system and graduated prototype down in GC in January 2011. He was also 22 when he entered the Navy so his perspective was a bit different. He said that the nukes were some of the smartest people he ever knew academically but many unfortunately lacked self discipline, maturity and common sense. While he was at GC there were several masts for the exact same thing you are talking about. Most all instances were for stupid things which they were warned against time and time again. The Navy has to take these types of incidents seriously considering on what and where these sailors will be working. It is really a shame.
Well, my son really does dispense information on a need-to-know basis, and he can't really wrap his mind around how easily I am tempted into thinking the worst about everything. Just heard from him, he and his housemates are ok. Hope that things turn out for the good of those caught up in the drama.
Our Matt said there was a Mast last week for the same thing(s) for about 20, they were given lesser penalties, but the whole Command was given a stern warning.
Holy Cow! Seventeen!! Wow!!! Praying no bystanders were caught up in it, and now on pins and needles waiting to hear from him.
Just heard from our Matt up in Ballston Spa, NY. 17 Sailors masted today, all related to underage drinking and lying. Discipline ranged from Demotion in Rate, Demotion in Rate and Pay Forfeiture, being removed from the Nuke program and 4 were Discharged from the Navy. Shame these men wasted a bright future.
This is awesome!
One year ago today our son left for bootcamp - WOW - what a year! We are now anxiously awaiting his power school grad on 12/13. So proud of him.....
