Information
As our recruits get furthur into bootcamp I thought that maybe some of the Moms in Division 818 PIR 9/2 would like to get more specific information. I'm brand new at this but thought I'd try and maybe some more knowledgable Mom's will help us.

my B man said he thought it was just yesterday... I was thinking it seemed like a hundred years ago hahah... just goes to show ya
Today the American Legion Riders were call to assist in the recovery of a little 6 year old boy who was lost yesterday in our Trinity River. Also some Riders went on a fund raiser for a fellow veteran fighting cancer. I was a hard day... the little boy was deceased but pulled out of the river by some of our officers and Riders... and others of us raised money to help our veteran friend.. Today was a hard day... not sure how Im feeling right now... but it was a good day... we gave a child back to his family and raised money for our friend to pay his bills.. today Im thinking how much I love my momma friends here and our kids! thats all I know right now...
