Such a great picture. Amazingly they all look so happy. My son is div 378 (brother division to 377) and I'm hoping we will get to see those SR's as well soon! Very exciting to realize their PIR is less than 2 weeks away. To say I am anxious is an understatement. So excited for these kids. Looking forward to meeting all the families who belong to my sons new family of Soldiers!

I did try to answer the question but they are pretty hard. I was excited to hear it was division 377 thought that being that 378 were brother divisions they might be in there too. But i guess not. There's always next Tuesday and then graduation almost here. But congrats to 377 and all the parents who got to see there SR..

Hi! My SR is also DIV 378. Did you actually receive a password on the info. sheet that was sent? No, I'm not asking for the password, I'm just trying to figure out if mine was inadvertently left off or if it was the same for everyone in DIV 378. Thanks so much!

I did receive a letter from my son today! Very happy. He sounded great and excited to be done. Didn't say when BS would be though. If anyone else hears, I'd love to know as well. Please message me if you know.

who is ready for the Graduation of October 04?
I can not wait to see my son, yesterday received a letter from the, ohh the ship 03 div378 . and then he going to fly to . Pensacola i was talking to my husband and told him that will be a little difficult to recognize among all the boys to the Graduation. So I thought it would be easier if I bought some binoculars so that it can find jiji
