Hi Anna - My daughter is in this Div too but I'm still at work and am hoping to have letters from her today - we're under a blizzard warning starting tonight thru Saturday a.m. so if I have letters, it will be so nice to read and re-read tomorrow!

Hello,

My daughter is also in this Div. I was wondering I noticed that most of the other ships have scarves. Did you want to get one? If so what color. A few of the other mom's are on the Forum page on the NRTC website. Come join us.

This is the sister division to 081, so the females bunk with the females of 081 and they do a lot of work together, but inspections and whatnot are with 082. Just thought I'd let you know!

Hi, there Div 82 - I see not many moms / wives / gfs have found your group!

I'm a 2x Navy mom. If you have any questions, feel free to connect / ping me and I'll help if I can. Meanwhile two things:

(1) Some of the divisions are choosing scarf colors. If you'd like to do this, I'm creating a master list to track them; discuss this and ping me, and I'll update the info in the larger group.

(2) This is approaching a hectic time for your SRs. A piece of advice is to ask your SRs for their Battlestations date. As soon as they have a firm date, they should mail this to you! You want to know this because then you'll know when your "I'm a Sailor!" call will come ;-)

Take care!

Hi - new to this group. My son is in this division, and was wondering if we are going to pick a scarf color for graduation?

Hello wtrsfisher I'm ok with what ever.. I think it's only the 3 of us in this div.

There's a few more on the RTC FB - I'm a fan of navy and red letters - don't think it's been chosen by the others? Or red with white letters since our sister division is 081 and they're doing red with blue?
