I'm flying out to go to H's BMT graduation early tomorrow morning. Does anyone have any advice or tips from their experiences going to graduations? I would love advice. I'm at that stage where I'm crazy excited to see him but I'm also a little nervous about the trip. I want everything to be as close to perfect as possible and go off without a hitch. So let me know. I'd love to hear stories of what to do and what not to do.

Re: Trip Advice Please
This. I didn't know the rules about PDA and spent the whole afternoon after graduation p!ssed because he wouldn't hold my hand or be affectionate.

Ditto what others have mentioned. If your H wants the platoon specific items like t-shirts & coins I would recommend purchasing them at the end of the day. It's crowded and it will suck lugging that stuff around especially when it's hot.
Take lots of pictures of the ceremony itself. My H loves looking at the pictures of them on the parade deck because it brings back good memories.
It's ok if y'all seem a little off at first. Remember that your H has had little to no freedom and now he can do whatever he wants. A lot has happened in the last few months and it takes some adjusting.
Have fun!
I'll try for porno tongue next time, just to report back. Is there a graduation from SOS? That's the next one, but I don't plan on going (am I an assholio wife for not even knowing if spouses go?)
I just figured the more time in service, the less they cared. And as everyone knows, we're apparently old (OMG, my eggs are shriveling right now. Better grab another glass of wine).
