Sheila, Zach PIR'd on 2/5/2010.. and is now in Seabee A-Schooling... but as with all of them, its a "waiting game" to get in to start! Typical military though - rush and wait ;) will be interesting to see why the switch from ground to subs... pay is the same.. but maybe faster promotion? hard to say.. Have you been getting mail? How about the phone call? Aren't those nice?! I know now that zach has gone to his A School.. he has his cell.. and we text daily and usually talk every other day... glad to have that communication! are you looking forward to PIR? I hope you get to go, it is an exerience of a lifetime!!!!

Hi Sheila
Our son is graduating next month. We have reservations with a hotel that offers 'free shuttle' service to the Camp Porter Gate. Can you tell me if this is convenient to where the PIRs are held? I imagine that the comples is huge.
We're wondering if maybe it would be better to get the parking pass instead of taking the hotel's offer. Thanks and congratulations to you.
