The program is supposed to be 9 weeks. 8 weeks of training and 1 week of processing. But our SRs started on the 9th and are done on the 28th of the following month. I think it is just the way they did the scheduling. It just so happens that they left at a good time. That might explain the call 8 days in instead of 2 weeks in because due to the acceleration, they entered the base at the end of their first week. They essentially started their second week a few days upon arrival. Also, I dont normally comment either lol. But he told me this and I thought I should share, just like all those who were kind enough to keep me posted on things :D

My daughter is in 096.  Is this group an accelerated program and what does that mean?  I have not posted anything on here yet, but have took all the comments and information in.   We have recieved  a couple letters and phone calls, FYI

Dede, thanks for letting me know.  My son is section leader for division (095).  I didn't realize they were in the accelerated program.

Stace, from what I understand they are already half way through (Today is day 1 of week 3) and since our SRs are in the accelerated 6 week program, they are prepping them for battlestations. Also, he has the schedule and does admin work for his division (095) and told me he will get a call on 2/26...Those in that division, babysit your phones!! :D

I heard from my son last night.  Sounded really tired, in good spirits though.  He had severely chapped hands and had to get that taken care of.  He called it a specific name, that I never heard of.  He said that he did really well on his test.  He also said that he will probably not be able to call for two weeks.  Does anyone know the reason for that?
