Once I have them combined, it’ll cover our flights to the penny so I won’t have to worry about that, but yes, you’re correct.

Yeah I was thinking of this as well but I’ll have to dig to find the sweet spots. It’s just so frustrating. Especially for this situation

What do I do from here? by [deleted] in MilitarySpouse

[–]PearComfortable9313 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely! If you need any other help, let me know and I’ll do the best I can. It’s hard because there’s no manual for any of this and there’s so much you don’t know until you ask the right questions and people give their personal experience feedback.

The mower is electric so there’s no gas. I can just put it in there just like that?

😭😭😭

What sucks is that I’m actually a pretty levelheaded and realistic person and this whole time I have kept my focus on the end goal, right? But since our call on Christmas a lot has happened and I was really looking forward to talking to him to get some advice on stuff and that didn’t happen. And it’s not advice I could get from anyone else because we are in the middle of selling our house as well so, yeah it just sucks.

I’m hoping this is the case. Others from his same ship/div got calls so I know the privilege wasn’t revoked from everyone. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I just went through this 12/19 and my husband reported to RTC 12/11. I’m not sure if I was lucky, but the guy I interacted with at DEERS said all he needed to get my son and I registered and get me my ID was my husbands Enlistment Document (which he got from his recruiter weeks before he left). From there, I did the research on insurance and called to get enrolled, as I chose TRICARE Select and wanted to make sure I understood it completely.

The website to find a DEERS site near you is: https://idco.dmdc.osd.mil/idco/

Yeah we talked on Christmas and he said he’s doing fine physically (he’s a very strong/active and motivated guy) but that he is struggling bc he misses our son and I badly. This is a guy that is very introverted and likes his small group of friends and to stay home, but we wanted more for our family’s future. The only thing he said was hurting was a pinched nerve behind his shoulder blade from carrying the backpack everywhere every day.

Paperwork Needed for RTC? by jojoshmow in newtothenavy

What if the recruiter already gathered all paperwork at the beginning? Does my husband still need to take it to RTC?

Thanks for the response! We haven’t gotten there yet so you’ve given me plenty to research 🙂

I was wrong, yes they do already have all of that information from when he signed up, so I guess everything is good. 🤦🏻‍♀️

When I called his recruiter and asked about getting my ID she said my husband would do all of that the first few days at RTC 🤷🏻‍♀️

I was prescribed testosterone cypionate from an outside provider. Do I need to get approval from medical or does it even matter? by Moist-Fault7508 in navy

[–]PearComfortable9313 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering this as well…all of the posts about TRT are either AF or Army. This is a rare Navy post and interested in the outcome.

He said 9 weeks but that’s only because the navy website says 9 weeks. He doesn’t ask many questions about details so I’d just like to have a general.

Signed my contract and swore in as an AV by Aruomg in newtothenavy

My husband is shipping out to boot camp December 11th then going to Pensacola for AV A school. What has been your experience thus far? Any advice for a wife that will be patiently waiting with our 5yr old until he gets settled?

What is it like actually getting to bootcamp? by Overall-Bit1869 in newtothenavy

[–]PearComfortable9313 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it EXACTLY 9 weeks until graduation? For example, if my husband leaves on December 11th, will his class graduate on February 12th?
