I hope that my ifo on millington helps also.Once again thank you.

hi .. warm welcome to PTO.... =)

How bout that welcome, ehh?

Welcome to PTO! :wave:

Glad to see you join and hope we will be able to help out here. I am on lunch break so short on time. Have you tried using our search feature for this location? Your best bet would be to search for "petersburg" and try it 2 separate ways....only in the federal forum...then in Virginia.

If you need help...just ask! We are happy to have you here with us!

Welcome to PTO

This site is phenomenal! Thank you for all of your information, it is INVALUABLE. I've had sooo many questions answered just by searching on here for them! My man just went in a little over a week ago. Two years. It's gonna be a long road if this last week gives me any indication of time...I've heard from him twice and he is doing ok. Again, thanks for your info, especially specific info on Millington Camp. Have a beautiful day.:)
