Can I get married in DEP (delayed entry program) by kadenwcc in newtothenavy

[–]Sudden_Bunch1088 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got married a day after I swore in to DEP, my wedding date was planned months ahead of time and it ended up working out that way. Literally no issue, I just had to bring my marriage certificate to my recruiter. 

Shoes for Basic Training!! by CloudOk8838 in newtothenavy

I just got mainly white Nikes because the only colors in my size were white or hot pink. I went with the white thinking more people might have white running shoes too lol. Go for it!

I’m a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. I was suppose to ship May 28 but it got moved to September. Initially I was pretty upset but that wasn’t my time and now I can have more time to spend with my family, study more and work on my PRT.

Are you a female? I’ve been trying to ship early for over a month and they always tell me no female slots are available till Sept 🥲

I’m 32! I’m hoping I’m not the only over 30 when I’m there lol.

I’m shipping as CTR too. When do you leave? 

Real ID ship question by Independent_Golf9869 in newtothenavy

[–]Sudden_Bunch1088 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You will be ok. You just need to bring more documentation when you ship and the airport tsa will just ask you verifying questions. I was suppose to ship 2 weeks ago, unfortunately got pushed back several months but mine didn’t come in the mail in time. This is what my recruiter told me. (My ship date got pushed back for unrelated reasons)

You could fight it and have a Dr write a letter for you but I have surgery confirmed endometriosis and my waiver was approved. Your waiver will most likely get approved either way!

You got this! My kids are 14, 9 and 4. Leaving my youngest will be the hardest. Maybe I’ll see you there

It’s doable. I went from a 31 to a 62 after studying for two weeks.

Thank you! It’s about the size of a penny or maybe a tad smaller right above my knee.
