Hi...I haven't been on here in awhile. Very cool! We will likely meet up then if you are going to PIR.
There are a few Meet and Greets the night before, so we plan on checking a couple of them out, I'm sure. -

Hi and nice to meet you. My son is in this division and he said at current he was assigned duty of Sectlon Leader- which I am not sure what that entails but he sounds like he does like bootcamp so far. I am hoping all goes well for their divison and I get to see him soon. I was absolutley thrilled to get his letter.

I am proabaly going to be staying there as well, not 100% for sure yet though,., My SR said that they have gotten mail once so far and will proably get more tonight or tomorrow. He did call today sounded tired but good and he likes his division. . I am not sure why some of them might get to call, he did say he was a "security" call and needed to get some info about me. Anyway.. I am glad that the days are dwindeling too!
