Graduation on December 30

My son just left for boot camp on October 28 and I know that this is jumping the gun considering all the possible scenarios that will decide my son's PIR... but if his boot camp takes the "normal" length of time, will graduation still occur on a holiday?

So did Sean, he actually had qualified for the SEAL program on the physical side, he did not score high enough on the written testing. Which was okay I thought he should find out if he liked the Navy before he went for the SEALS. to be 18 again and good shape, man I miss those days.

Shane,
When David decided to join he started working out in earnest and had the run and other requirements down pretty good long before he left for Boot Camp. I'm guessing that a lot of these youngsters thought they were in better shape than they really were.

Shane,
What kind of surgery? Hopefully, everything went well. Getting occasional letters but still have not received a call lately. We've just purchased our plane tickets- very excited about the graduation.

Gallbladder removal. has not been a lot of fun I am one of those people who don't like to be down for very long and start pushing myself sooner then later. Have not heard anything from Sean since the day after Thanksgiving other then a really quick 2 paragraph letter saying things were going okay. I know his sister is really really looking forward to going to the PIR.
