Congradulations on all you that have PIR this week.  Word of advise be sure to attend the meet and greet when my son graduated we went to Sarg's and he was very informative and really wants to look after our SR's.

I hear exactly what you're saying Christian.  My son is there now and said the same thing...lol

And when I was there in 88, the letters meant EVERYTHING to me.....

Just an update on my site callsforrecruits.org.  I am thinking of adding photos of recruits that have received phone cards.  If you would like a picture of your recruit in the slideshow, email me the photo and I'll add it to slideshow......

This is for all of you whose sons or daughters are at GL, or will be there soon.

Contact the recruiter for your SR address. It could take 2 - 3 weeks for the form letter to get to you. Another 5 days could pass by the time your SR receives their letters from you. My SR (now SAILOR!)  left for GL on 1/31/12. My wife contacted his recruiter on 2/3/12 and was given his address.

Write as often as you can. My wife started writing our Sailor the night he left, as well as his girlfriend, and the two of them wrote every day. My sons' PIR was 3/30. I asked him what kind of impact the letters had. "I was ready to quit, untill the letters came".........I didn't write everyday, but at least 3 times per week. He enjoyed my "weekly Nascar" letter, where I would give him the highlights of the race.

Just make sure the letters are up beat. Nothing negative. Support your SR and their decision to join.

Hey Mike, You should see something any day. We received our letter today, but we only live 1-1/2 hrs away from Great Lakes.
