navywife11 - So nice of his Chief to let him call.
ladies, let try and win Trivia Tuesday today for division 47(it would be so great if we won this week because they would probably take the picture of them at the capping ceremony after battlestations 21)
thank you!! Mom, Dad, stepdad and girlfriend are on the list. --- We're going to decide to day what we're going to do for sure.
good morning all :) 9 days left :) last night my hubby called :) i was shocked and concerned when i saw the number on my phone being that it was so late, but all is well with div 910 :) he got my letter about my grandmother passing and so his Chief let him call, which i am so thankful for :) he has his final PFA today :) hope all has a great tuesday :)
Posted the info to you, David's mom.
Ladies, just to explain the conflict sometimes in the BattleStations dates reported by your SRs. It happens in every PIR group. Some of the SRs are given the wrong info, or approximate info. So sometimes SRs from the same PIR group will call home with different dates. Also, they start one day and finish the next. So some call home with the start date and others with the "call" date.
So...just know that we do the best we can to be aware of accurate dates, but sometimes there is confusion. To add to that, sometimes the actual date is changed, such as it was for a couple of divisions in PIR 1/20 because of the death of the SR. So bear with us as we are trying to get an accurate schedule! I sill hope to hear of a date for 051/052. Please message me if you have a date. Thanks!
momma2many: Children over 12 need to have photo ID if you have it. Although some have arrived with just birth certificate/social security card and have been allowed in. School ID works, drivers license, state ID. Those 12 and under need birth certificate or social security card.
This is a relatively small PIR group so your extras may not have to wait. Did your SR already fill the 4 guest spots with you/your husband and two other people, or are a couple of the kids on the list already? If you have two empty spaces on the guest list, then you will have just 6 "extras." Hopefully you all can go right in without waiting. Happens sometimes. I would strongly suggest that you all get there early...if you take a shuttle, try to be on the 6:30 one, or if driving, be in the line by 6. If they make some of your group wait, they will wait right there in the Visitors Center until right before PIR starts and then go in.
Could you let me know the Battlestations date for division 049? PLEASE!
deep breaths. ha ha big trips are so difficult! ok. no... Just to clarify (you mamas who've been there) If I decide to take the kids, which we're leaning toward, either my husband or I... or both... will wait till everyone is seated with the kids ( 8 of them) and then sit? and kids over 13 or 13 and older need photo id?
Thank you!
Thank you Diannep my computer/internet has been messed up and I didn't know if my message had gotten to you!
Thank you again!
momma2many: No one has reported BS dates to me for 051/052. If anyone has one, please private message me too.
ProudofGar: Messaged the date to you. Yes, they go together.
mantha: I assume someone messaged you the BS date? I had been given two different dates for 048 and 050 (both will go through with their brother divisions), but I think the later one is the correct one. Wish I could post it here..... !
