- We are going to PIR. My husband is retired AF and I'm still in so we are staying at the Navy Lodge. All nukes have long schools and as far as I know are promoted the same. I'm not familiar with Navy promotions because I am AF and my older son is Army. I will soon however learn more about the Navy through my son. I thought tech school (same as Navy A school) was worse than BC. We had more marching and more inspections there than we did at BC. As long as you live on base there are always inspections.

- We have PIR on 5 March. He's doing good, he was in really good shape when he joined and has been helping others in his division with PT. He went in for Nuclear Ground but since he's been at BC he has decided that he is going to go Nuclear Subs. I'm waiting to see what made him change his mind. How is your son doing?
