My son is in this division also, I can wait to see all our Sailors on 5/25. Let's keep the prayers going for our Sailors. So proud of them all and cant wait to meet you on 5/25. My son sent me some of his team mates names (it was a form letter i sent him with a self addressed stamped envelope), i believe they are all last names so I cant post them but it is so nice to know they are a great team. prayers to the family's of our future Sailors!!!

I believe my son is training with Sticks as of now also. May change by graduation. He has absolutely no experience in flag carry, music, drill, etc. Not sure how he ended here, but he said he really likes this division.

Hi Moms...received the form letter yesterday stating my son is Div 932. According to a map I found online that puts him in the Rueben James. I'm excited to hear how he landed in the performance division...and what his role is. I'm thinking it must be something with flags or maybe a body snatcher since he hasn't played an instrument since junior high. Whatever the case, I'm proud beyond words and think he is likely to make some great friends in this group. Any other 932's out there?

My son is in 932 in the Rueben James. I only know because it is on his address.. I have only received one short letter. He was recently married, so all phone calls are going to his wife. I have no idea what is going on or what his role in 932 is. He plays trumpet and sings, so I am guessing one of those.

Kristie, your recruit cannot be in 932 since that division has not formed yet. Perhaps you mean 923??

My daughter is Ship 02, Div 945, and has written me about what she'll be doing, performing in the 2 prior PIRs. I'm excited for her, and only wish I could be there to take pictures or video of the performance.
