Comment by diannep on January 4, 2015 at 9:01am: Good Morning!

I believe that this PIR group will be starting BattleStations tonight. They will either go Sun, Mon and Tues nights....or....Mon, Tues, and Wed nights....but I think more likely starting tonight. Remember, they can have up to 4 divisions go a night....my guess is that there will be 4 tonight, 3 tomorrow night, and 4 the next night. Just going on past schedules....advice to all is to keep your phones especially close to you these next few days---I'm a Sailor calls can start as early as 2 pm Central time on the day they finish (remember, this is a 12 hr overnight drill). Tomorrow I can post which divisions I think went through on Sun night, but we are not allowed to post that prior to them going through.

Remember, this is a long call full of excitement....from very proud and TIRED sailors! Those going tonight will have been up for about 36 hours by the time they call you....the good news is that they get to "hit their racks" that night at 8 pm! I'm sure there will be no complaints!

Comment by maryjo on January 3, 2015 at 4:35pm: Oh I could see my son loving the Captain's Cup! Do you have the link for the livestream of the graduation. I want to share it with family/friends who can't go but can't remember what the website is. Thank you!

Comment by diannep on January 3, 2015 at 11:34am: Hope all have a great weekend! This PIR group should be doing Captains Cup right now....a fun athletic competition for them! Division against Division!
