Hi Otto, I'll have to play it by ear on the visit. When she got sick and got set back I burned a bunch of extra vacation so I need to get back to work for a while before I take some more time off.

Hi Kirk, glad to see you made it over. Holly will have SCC and ATT to do before she classes up. Once she is past Phase III indoc she'll get evening and weekend liberty, so that would be the time to go down if your thinking of visiting P-cola. You really should see the Air Museum. P-cola is the cradle of Naval Aviation.

Hi everyone, my daughter Holly just PIR'd on the 17th and shipped out same morning to Pcola. We've been txtng today and so far she loves it. I'd love to visit her down there but her "A School" is only around 4 weeks long. She's training for Aviation Boatswain's Mate (E). So I think she primarily studies Industrial Safety and such. After that she gets 14 days leave to visit us in Denver and then it's off to the fleet. Anybody else on here with a kid going for the ABM(E) rate?

My daughter will be going to A school in P Cola in about 10 days, probably sit ther a few weeks waiting to class up for CTR, in any case is there any point in time when they are allowed to have a car during A school, or a place that they can keep them at off base for when they are on liberty?

I see some of these comments, about some of these guys getting stationed in Lemoore. How does duty staion wish lists get processed? order of merit? I had many talks with my son about choosing all west coast for duty station wish list, so hopefully he hits the books hard and does well enough to get out here. Hopefully CA, but even Washington would be cool. I was a navy brat,and was born in Lemoore, but we lived up in Whidbey island for a while too. I figured that at some point he'll be on a cruise anyway, so why not get stationed close to home ( Denver, and my home- norcal) so that flights to visit him will be less expensive and vice versa, and getting stationed in ca would be sweet, so those rare four day weekends he can swing up here, or I can shoot down there. Well I guess he hasto get through boot 1st, but as he is a wrestler, the saying goes, once you've wrestled...., anyway these boards are really cool, and I look forward to chatting with you all soon.

I sure can't get use to these computers. I must have hit the wrong button an sent out a message before I was through. Anyway if your son got use to the heat in Pensacola' he should have no problem with our weather here by Lemoore. Tommorrow we are starting a heat wave with temps in the 104 range.Our saving grace is that we don't have the humidity to go along with the heat.
Being raised in this area I can assure you that the towns around Lemoore have a great deal of respect for the servicemen and the base' and your sailor should enjoy his time here.
If you have any questions about the area, feel free to ask.

Rob,congradulations on your sons finishing his AO training. My son should be finishing his AO school in about two weeks' with the possibility of NAS Lemoore or San Diego. If he goes to Lemoore it's only about 30 miles from where we live.
