Hey,
My daughters address is ship 2 div 922. My daughter left Feb 15th. When did your daughter leave?
Have you gotten any mail from her yet? i got her address 3 days after she left because i did not want to wait out the holiday weekend so i called her recruiter fri before and he called me back with the address in 5 mins...
I'm very new to this site so i hope i figure out how to use this and we may keep each other updated if our babies are together.
Have an awesome day....
Lisa

Hi Lisa, my daughter left on Feb 16 from El Segundo, CA and no letter yet! :(.
However, I had read some of the other mom's comments about contacting their childs's recruiter which I did and got her address immediately...I have already mailed out 3 letters I had waiting for her! So now we know our beautiful daughter's are on the same ship! Wonder how many there are? Did you get her box yet? I did the day before yesterday. Well I am also new to the site too.. Ashley is the one who wanted me to go on navy for moms website.. it is really helpful to see that I am not alone and to be able to relate to the other moms that are missing their kids! I miss her so much! I can hardly wait to graduation...are you going? Well if you have a chance you can upload pictures on your profile page.. I did ...i put some pictures of her on my site
Take Care and let's keep eachother posted ok?? Rosemary

Its great to hear back from you...I am starting to think they didn't get started straight away...I got her box two days after she left but still no formal letter. It seems most get the formal letter around the same time the box. Yes I'm going to graduation. want to make flight reservations asap but the cheapest is non refundable so waiting for grad date. I was wondering how many there are too. Lakiesha ( my daughter ) left with 3 females..not sure how this message looks..I'm on my phone at work . Won't be much work getting done around here until apr..:) ok talk to ya soon...I will try to put pics tonight also..

OK moms. I'm going to suggest another site - go to the 900 moms. Any division starting with a 9 (922) is what is called a performance division. This may be a flag bearer, band, choir, "administrative duties", at the PIRs. Lots of discussion in the "900 Moms" group. It is an honor to be in that division. Because these recruits spend time in practice, they usually pick someone who has a decent ASVAB score, in pretty good physical shape and knows the basic info they were supposed to learn while in DEP. You will find out soon what your daughters have been picked for. Best wishes and enjoy the roller coaster ride. (my son was in the triple threat division (choir, band and guns - not sure of this last one almost three years ago). The most important thing you can do is to send cards and letters every day (I sent a letter on my way to work and mailed a card on my way home) everyday. This is there only connection to the outside world.
