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

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Welcome to the Division Discussion for Divisions 183 and 184

These two divisions are brother divisions and will be training together from the beginning through BS21 their final test. Your SRs, soon to be SAILORS, are becoming friends, and some of them may be heading to A School together.

Get to know each other, your SRs are!

Please still use the Main Wall of the PIR Group to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion area as often as we would like.

Every single question that is asked is important Every single concern is genuine Every single member is important to us We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.

Hang in there!!!

183 for us.
mine is in 183 also. I wonder if I will get a call. I have not talked to him since April 8th. When was your last phone call.
I had been about 3 weeks since his last call.
They will have a chance to call again on Tuesday. Hang in there.

Just got a call from my SR, sounded very upbeat and ready to graduate. They finished second in the captains cup today.

Hello All,  I missed my call. I was so sick about it.  But my son was able to get a hold of my ex though so I felt better, I was doing yard work all day and happened to be in the shower.  I missed the call by 9 minutes!  He said he sounded great he said and will call again Tuesday.  I am so glad to see your posts.  Makes me feel like I am still in the loop.  I cannot wait to see him Friday.  I think we may go to the meet and greet Thursday night too.

I also missed my call yesterday:( Relieved to hear they will call again Tuesday,I will be attending the meet and greet on Thursday.Look forward to meeting all..
We will be at Sarge's meet & greet Thursday. I can't wait to see my SR!! I cannot wait to hear from him on Tuesday. He told me to keep my phone on because he gets to get on FB. He is so excited about reconnecting with friends.

Is the Sarge's meet and greet the one at the Sundance Saloon, I think? Also, just a reminder that pictures of our SR's from division 183 (from a couple of weeks ago)  are on the Facebook page for U.S. Navy Recruit Training Command.  Looking forward to meeting everyone!

My Sr is ship 3 division 184 and im getting worried I have not heard from him since early april.
Anyone else in the same boat?

My son is is div 183 and his last phone call was early april too. He told us it would be his last phone call until close to graduation. Hopefully we should be getting our "I'm a sailor" calls in the next couple of days.

Ladies:  A reminder....no BattleStations dates can be posted here.  Also, if you have any general questions about bootcamp, please post them on the main PIR page rather than on your division group.  WeN4Moms veterans don't have time to get to all of the questions on the discussion groups since we are on about 6-8 PIR groups at at time.
