What Were Your Feelings When Your Sailor Joined The Navy:
Hi Bill, my sons PIR is May 1st as well.We are planning on taking the shuttle we heard that was one of the best ways, I believe its like 3 bucks a person. We've made our flight reservations already,got a good deal with American...
Good Luck!
Hi Bill!! We had NO problem getting through. The ATA counter was not busy so while the boys were processing through, I approached the ticket counter and asked if we could go to the gate and they said no problem, let us get them checked in and then we'll issue no board passes to the parents. THey will ask for id and for your Sailor's last name -- no problem.
Helpful hint: Make sure all the boys check into the USO, the folks there are great and they give the boys ALOT of great information, plus free food and drinks. We didn't and they came and found us which took up alot of time to hunt all of the boys down... I believe you pass it on the way to the gate after security... The family is welcome in the USO as well. What div is your son in? I saw a few 900 divs while I was there.
