Yes, he said that their division has the most flags of any division so far and they will most likely be the most decorated division at graduation:-)

If we get going as early as we hope to, plan to see some of our faithful Moms and Dads that night! Otherwise, we'll just be sitting poolside waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting for Friday morning---

I've been in Illinois for 27 years--now we live just east of St. Louis. I graduated from Carmel HS, and attended Manchester College & Butler U, then eventually graduated from Southern Illinois U-Carbondale. We're staying at the Homewood Suites, but I think there's a meet and greet Thursday where you are staying. Look under groups for PIR 08/08.

Hi--another Hoosier! I am originally from the Indinapolis/Carmel area. We actually drove through Bloomington on the 14th, as a side trip coming back from Indy. So, how is Jon doing? This past weekend seemed especially tough--so, just for the heck of it, I actually called down to Andy's room to see if he was ready for dinner. Looking forward to 08/-8 and seeing all our Sailors!
