Good Morning! Today is our day!!!!!!!!! Said a nice long prayer as I blew out my candle this morning before heading to work!!!! Ya'll, we are almost at 2 days! Hope everyone has a wonderful day and keep smiling, the clock is ticking .......:) :) :) !!!
Good Morning all.
I thought this would be the best place to post this. For those of you with a loved one heading to PreBuds. There has been a Private Group started for this class. After PIR, you can request to join. Search Class 295 in groups. HOOYAH
does anyone know when div-068 goes through bs
Thanks sorry if led anyone wrong THEN LETS GO THESE LAST DIVISIONS call your loved ones woohoo!!!!!!!!!!
Actually, it's Friday and Saturday nights. So, that's probably why Captains Cup is on Saturdays.
Here is an excerpt from the Powerpoint that explains what you are looking for b2pooh.
Battle Stations is a 12 hour program and can handle four (4) divisions of 88 recruits = 352 recruits, along with their facilitators. It is designed to operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and accommodate these 352 recruits and facilitators simultaneously every night of the year. However, due to funding and significant contractor cost it isn’t used on Fridays or Saturdays.
I may be wrong but the two powerpoint presentation are definately worth viewing for sure
The powerpoint on BS mentions that they do not operate onsat or sunday due to I think it said Insurance Reasons
Dustin'sMom: If anyone went through last night...and we are not positive they did...very confusing, the calls could start in the next 30 minutes or so, but sometimes they are later. Time will tell!
Checked with the PIR 02/03 group. Nope, no civies allowed. They had to remain in their dress blues, including at the airport. So doesn't look like they have changed the way it has always been. I have a feeling the comment was made about "leave", but not sure. When they report to their duty station for the first time, they also must be in uniform.
