SharksFan, do you know how long your son will be in MRP? When I was at the depot I had two good buddies of mine get injured and sent to MRP. I saw them the week I graduated and they both had gained about 20 pounds since the last time I'd seen them and they looked really healthy. They told me they did a lot of rehabilitation and working out with weights. Even though it's going to take him a little bit longer to complete recruit training, your son is definitely in good hands and he's receiving the best training this country can offer.

Hi Sharksfan,
I HAD a son at MCRD. He graduated and now is completing artillery training and we are waiting to hear where he goes next. We love San Diego.

I'm a newbie too
Salutations all!
I'm a new member here too. I heard one of my sons talking about this site. Looks like a great source of support.
My eldest son just graduated at MCRD San Diego, Charlie Co Platoon 1051 on October 10th. I'm happy to have him home for a bit but am already sad for him to leave again so soon. Those Drill Instructors made an amazing Marine of my boy!

Welcome SJSharkfsfan and NewMarineMama.
SJSharkfsfan ~ Hope your soon-to-be-Marine gets over the complications causing MRP status as quickly as possible. Hang tough, they'll take good care of him.
NewMarineMama ~ Hug him while you got him, lol. Boot Leave goes...f-a-s-t!!!

I see the yellow hoof prints are in need of paint and are now located inside the portico at MCRD Diego. So the bus rolls right up on the parade deck to unload its human cargo?

Thanks Corpspapa! I sure am trying to hug him as much as I can (when the girlfriend isn't). He promised the entire day with me today and I am very excited! We are supposed to go "ring shopping" as he is getting ready to pop the question with the girlfriend! OMG, I'm not sure I'm ready for this!!!
I love him being home though. I'm really bummed that he didn't get Recruiters Assistance but there IS a chance he may get to come home after MCT and have an extended period of RA (like over the holidays!!!) because his MOS school doesn't start until January!

Heather ~ You get a whole day with him??!! LOL. Blake was the same way when he came home for boot leave. Going, going, going. We did see him at mealtime, ha-ha. Be sure to send him to SOI with a good security lock. The ones they issue there are easily 'broken.' Blake's Zune 'disappeared.' So did several other's. Yes, it happens.
SlingerDun ~ Love your signature quote.
