DOES ANYONE HAVE PIR DATE FOR RECRUITES THAT LEFT AROUND MARCH 15TH?
My boyfriend left on March 15th. Did anyone get the letter with PIR dates yet? I know it should be coming soon but I am so impatient! Does anyone know yet?

Hi, my son left on March 16th. I also have a daughter who graduated bootcamp @18mo ago. The link below list the upcoming graduations. Once you have a division, you will be able to go there and check the dates. The number in parenthesis is how many divisions are graduating. My son is in Division 184. Depending on the number of Divisions I figure he will graduate May 7, or May 14. I am anxious to get his date, so I can start making reservations. We had a great time at our daughter's graduation.

Rachelle,
Posting your boyfriends ship/division info would be helpful. My son is in ship 12 div 180 and as of today his recruiters says the system does not show a pir date.
I came up with the same tenative dates of May 7 or May 14, but the recruiter thought mid May.
Hang in there it does get easier,
Mo

My son is also Ship 12 Div 180. Grad date will hopefully be May 7, 2010. You should have received a form letter to give you more information.

My son left 3/15-he is Ship 12, Div 180 and his PIR is May7. Your boyfriend SHOULD be the same. Keep in mind, though, that it could easily be delayed a week or two if he doesn't pass tests. I just made my reservations today.

My fiance is in Ship 12 Division 184. We received a form letter to inform us his boot camp grad is now set for May 7th. I would love to keep in touch with all you Division 184's and compare notes, letters, dates, etc as we are receiving them! How are you guys all feeling about this? Week one is under our belts!

My son is also Ship 12 div 179. Got a letter yesterday saying that only his section did well on the inspection. The chief said that PIR could be delayed one to two weeks. He asked that we please pray that they graduate on the 7th. I didn't realize that it was Mother's Day weekend. That makes it even more special.
