Published

Hi Everyone!

My name is Alex and I am a newly-commissioned Navy nurse being assigned to Camp Lejeune in October after I complete Officer Development School.

It seems as though all of the other Navy Nurse Candidate Program 2012 grads are hiding...as there are no threads connecting any of us! Let's fix this! :)

I'm relieved that I'm not crazy and am not the only one freaking out...lol.

I actually only live about 12 miles away from Newport so I'll be coming Sunday morning...it's going to be great to meet you all! :)

I'm a bit late in this thread but my name is Melissa and I'm a new graduate assigned to San Diego in October. I received my orders yesterday and I'll be heading to ODS tomorrow, so I'm feeling very unprepared and nervous. :uhoh21:

I'll be arriving Saturday evening. I look forward to meeting you all!

Hi Melissa! I'm Devon, congrats on finally getting orders! Better late than never I guess right?? Lol, it's going to be okay, if your worried about not being prepared by Saturday I would say don't stress out too much, even though you just got orders, we're all pretty much in the same boat. I feel like even though I've had my orders for over a month I'm still scrambling around trying to figure what I need to do and what to bring and everything! Just take a deep breath, enjoy your last few nights home, bring everything on the ODS checklist and it will be fine! :)

I think it's a great idea for us all to meet up on Saturday! My number is 201 919 3998, feel free to text or call me as well. Can't wait to meet everyone!
