View Full Version : Question on Ship #
fxybmx05 05-29-2008, 06:56 PM I have been writing my DF everyday...but does this sound like a correct ship number #..Ship0505? Is their even such thing as that number? I have been looking around alot, and I have seen ship # s like 06 07, 14, 17, 03, etc. The recruiter is the one that gave his grandma that address...could I get some sort of confirmation that this is a ship number or not a ship number. If it's the wrong address will he even get my letter? I'm sooo worried right now. I have yet to have any returned letters.
ily.mmw 05-29-2008, 07:22 PM from what i know the ship numbers only go from 1-17
OMG it's Andrea! 05-29-2008, 07:22 PM All I know is that Joe's ship # was 05

that's the website with all the addresses that correspond to the ship number.
Proud Priester 05-29-2008, 07:29 PM I remember the address my DH's recruiter gave me was really strange so I ended up emailing someone at GL and getting it. I try and find the contact information right now.
fxybmx05 05-29-2008, 07:34 PM OMG...what do I do now? I sent pictures and everything!!!
What do you think they will do?
pennylayne 05-29-2008, 07:37 PM well its different in boot camp. its not an actual ship. lol don't freak out yet, Like in boot camp for me, we went by platoon numbers and mine was 4027. If you have concerns go ask your local recruiter.
ily.mmw 05-29-2008, 07:37 PM well i'm pretty sure that if you got his division number right and his name it'll get to him but it'll take a little longer or they'll just send it back.
Proud Priester 05-29-2008, 07:42 PM rtc.pao@navy.mil. okay send these guys and email and tell them your situation including his name and what not. They may email you back wanting part of his social.
fxybmx05 05-29-2008, 07:43 PM Ok good, it's just I have yet to receive anything back yet and I definitely got his division number right. Just as long as their not going to anybody else and their getting to him weather it's late or not...thats all that matter.
fxybmx05 05-29-2008, 07:43 PM Crap I don't have his last part of his social...but I can try just talking to him.

Hopefully you didn't send naked or risque pictures? They aren't supposed to get those in BCT.
fxybmx05 05-29-2008, 07:46 PM haha don't worry their not those kind. Their pretty innocent ones that my mom took.

aww :wub hopefully he gets them soon! I'm sure he'll be really happy to see you :)
Proud Priester 05-29-2008, 07:50 PM Yeah, just try talking to them..and since you have his division number I'd include that aswell. The guy that emailed me back was very nice and helpful.

lucky you, i have a few friends that have had troubles with the PAO saying that they can't give out any information or whatnot and to wait until they sent you mail, it's ridiculous.
when i went there for my husband's graduation, the didn't have him on the flipping list and i had to go running around wherever else just to get a freaking stamp on my hand.
fxybmx05 05-29-2008, 07:58 PM Yeah I just emailed them now..this is what I said..
Hello,
My name is Mollie (and my last name), and my fiance,(I included his full name) left to The Recruit Training Command on May 20th. I was able to retrieve his address from his grandmother who contacted his recruiter the day after he had arrived. I found out that I have been writing his Ship number wrong. His division is 252 and I have been writing his Ship number 0505. I was wondering if he will receive those letters with the ship number written that way but his division correct. If I can get any confirmation that the letters I sent have gotten there and he has received them, it would be helpful. Thank you.
Mollie (My last name)
How does that sound?
