<p>Our Midshipmen & women, 2011 B/Split leave for their 1st trip in June. Any tips, suggestions, gifts (gave DS the Great Spyderco* after indoc), words of encouragement, etc. before they leave?? </p>
<p>We plan on visiting our DS on Memorial day weekend (hotels filling fast!!)
Is this the only chance we get to see him off before departure, i.e. no days off in June between exams & departure?</p>
<p>Hoping our DS ships out of Long Beach or San Diego, is there a chance?</p>
<p>If I missed a cc thread addressing this, please enlighten me…Thanks!</p>
<p>*Thanks Colorado Parents for the Great knife!!</p>
