Scarletrose, If I remember correctly, my son was in Power School when he surprised me coming home during Christmas...in fact he scared the crap out of me! He showed up just after I turned all the outside lights off, (I live way out in the country on a ranch with no neighbors and I live alone) I thought I saw headlights which is not normal for my area, but they left....next thing I see is my son walking in the door! He had a friend pick him up at the airport and surprised me...which of course I was very happy to see him...but the first words out of my mouth besides OMG..."Did you get kicked out!???" It is funny now looking back, but I hadn't seen him since his PIR and he was always telling me how hard it was...from what I remember he only took one week of leave as he wanted to have longer when he was sent to his duty station when he finished Prototype since he wouldn't know ahead of time if the ship would be going out immediately on deployment after he got there.
