My husband left for Marine Corps. Bootcamp in Parris Island, SC on April 16. Just a few short days after he left our 7 month old began crawling. She has now got two teeth and is talking up a storm. I'm so excited to head down and see him graduate on July 13. I can't wait for him to be back home already. I'm just counting down the days. All I know is I'm so proud of him and know our daughter is too.

My Son left the same day and it has been very hard not being able to talk to him and see him. I'm counting down the days till July 12th. I can't wait to see him!

HI! My name is Karly and I live in California, but just recently moved to NC. And I was thinking you could possibly answer my questions or give some helpful advice... What happens after graduation?? My fiance really wants to join the USMC (his uncle is a staff sergeant here in Jacksonville, NC), however I'm really reluctant because I don't want him to be gone so long.. I've been told that it's worth it in the end, but how is it during the process?
