Good Morning!

Navymom: Did your SR ask for the chapstick? If so, then yes....she would be expecting it and would have cleared this with her RDCs. She can buy it at the NEX but saves her money for you to send it. She will have to open the letter with it in there in front of her RDCs, but it should be ok.

I am sure we all already know this but RTC has made it official on their website:
TG 17 - 7 Divisions (101-106, and 917) Graduate Friday, March 6, 2015. Each recruit will be permitted 4 guests
I have changed your Group title to reflect that.
Congrats!

Can you see I am in a goofy mood :-) ?

I am guessing that cleaning can be stressful because of Compartment inspections and just daily keeping it ship shape...and ummm, cleaning toilets that 88 people use...blech!.
The entire compartment is inspected and graded on it at least two formal times...even the RDC's office. Someone other than their RDC's do the inspection. My son said they got "hits" for the toilet paper rolls not being stacked correctly and in the right direction...something like that...just not done the way it was supposed to be.
Once they got a "hit" for starting their cadence call prematurely...that was the RDC's fault that time! He felt so badly about it! That was a "street hit"...one taken while they were out and about marching.
"Hits" are not physical...Navy speak for "points off".
You know...like "we took a hit" or "we're hit"....or maybe it's from this game:

I think that the head crew is called the "Nasty Nine"!
I am reading that "Hollywood showers" come with the position :-)

I will ask. :) Thanks!

Or....maybe he is in charge of making sure the other SRs mind the rules and restrictions re: using the bathroom? I would ask him again in a few weeks....he will have many details then! :-)
