dad, Welcome to U.S. Navy Special Operations Group. When you have a chance be sure to read one of the following post or all three This is a must read before posting, OPSEC and Social Media and Posting on NSW Forums (this is a must read). Everyone here is ready and willing to help answer any questions you have regarding this long journey your Guy is starting. Tell your guy that my Family and I appreciate his desire to join the Navy and we are proud of his decision. He will be in our Thoughts and we wish him the best.

Yes, I receved my form letter yesterday. It contained the PIR date, list of invitees, brochure of the area etc. I would suspect you would have one any day.

Very little from my son. His last letter stated that he thought he would ship the day after his 5/11 graduation but then he might have have some leave coming but I don't think he really knows. Also I don't get what is going on with the phone calls as we have not had a real one yet. Only a 30 second call to resolve an administrative issue? Guess that counted as his call..
