Your countdown clock is starting to race forward now. Advice for what it is worth;
Try and spend a lot of time together as a family. Time will become a very precious commodity after I-Day. Leave time will be measured in days not weeks or months and summer leave will be measured in summer blocks. Enjoy these last few weeks of freedom.
At the end of I-Day you will have about 60 minutes to say goodbye on Stribling walk. At the end do not be a weeping mom hanging on to your child as they form up to head off to Bancroft. Above all do not say anything about the detailers as they are listening.
Last summer my Mid was Company XO and as the detailers were forming the plebes to march off, one weeping mom in particular was hanging onto her son and for whatever reason blurted out "OH baby, be careful of the detailers, especially the female ones as I hear they can be really mean".
Well that was sauce for the goose. She promptly marched up beside that plebe, brought all the plebes to attention and bellowed out " Your time being mommies little precious just ended and it's time for all you F###### little girls to start growing up because as of this moment your F###### Asses belong to Us!" She told me the look of horror on that moms face was classic and she still laughs about it today. So don't be that mom.
