Hi I am also Ship 14 Div 002. I so can't wait for Nov. PIR is only two days before his birthday.

I hope they are doing well. Do you know if we can take them outside the base that weekend at all?

I'm sure they all are doing great, my husband is the division's RPOC a and he is really amazing at teamwork and making sure everyone excels as a unit. He's not one to be on a power trip and he really is wonderful to work with so I have no doubt that they are, pardon my language, kicking ass in bootcamp. You can take them off base after PIR they just have to be back by I think 8pm. If your SR is staying in GL for A school then they will also get weekend liberty

I am hoping we get another call this weekend since that will be the 3 wk Mark. I know that there are 3 "guaranteed" calls, the 15 sec "I'm here" call, the 3 week "im alive" call, then the last "im a sailor call". So I think last weekends call was a call that was earned
