DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

Schedule is complete on here....once someone confirms 361 and 362!
361 and 362?
Diannep, I waited for my son to call yesterday from DIV 361, but I did not receive a phone call. So, I still have no clue about the battlestaions21 date, other than what you are able to provide. I hope another family member in 361 has heard something. Thanks for all the postings regarding this.
You're very welcome. I'm still thinking that it might be Tuesday along with 362. But just a guess....hopefully someone from either division will hear soon and we can confirm or change.
so does div 359 finish or start on november 1st for BS21?
They start on the 1st and finish on the 2nd.
ok thanks! :) i'm so anxious for it to all be over and be at graduation with my sailor.
So 951 has been changed on schedule above according to report from another recruit.
2 days ago I heard that Div 951 would do Battle Stations 21 on Sunday Oct 31st, now someone is saying that their recruit said Div 951 would do Battle Stations Tuesday Nov 2nd. Now I'm confused, as to which date Div 951 will actually do Battle Stations. Anyone know for sure?
HannahsDad: Unfortunately the only way we know BStations schedules is through what recruits report. Yesterday, a recruit told her mom that it was on Tues. Earlier, someone had reported it was on Sunday. It may have been that they decided not to go with just one group on Sunday (951) and instead put them with 2 other groups, which happens alot (sometimes 4 groups go). I'm going to put a questionmark beside the date and hope someone else reports from their own recruit.
Wow! this is great! I really to need to figure out how to save all these different pages so I know where to look. I guess replying on them will help. My son is in 903 Dec 3. Looks like it will be a while before his shows up on here
lukesmom: His won't show up on this discussion page because he is PIR 12/3. This one is only for this PIR group (11/5). We will start one for your group in a couple of weeks.
