Howdy folks anyone else have an SR in Ship 02 Div 931. Would love to here what ever you would like to share. I came home from work at 6pm found the form letter in my mail box. I didn't even read it except to get the address, addressed the mound of letters and then flew to the downtown post office to get them in the inside box before the last pick up at 6:30!
WHEW!

Delbert: They call Training Week #4 "Hell Week" because they are up earlier, have tons of inspections, and are just alot busier. It is really not quite as bad as the name implies, so we have been told!
If anyone has heard a BattleStations date for this division, please friend request/private message me (we can't post on the public boards). I have a feeling I know what night it is since 900 divisions go most often on one particular weekday night, but just wanted to confirm. Thanks!
Would you please give me a call at 972-965-1191 if you know when Battlestations will occur?
Thanks so much,
I would like to know as well. Send me a text or call 423-505-5878. Does anyone know where we could look for a hint at least? I want to make sure we are praying really hard during that time. Lol Also, does anyone know when those going to Pensacola will be flying out?
Has everyone received their 'I am a Salor' call except me? We haven't gotten one and I received a letter yesterday. My SR said to pray because he was haing a hard time passing the run. When I tried to print a parking pass this morning it said my password did not work but it was the one he sent. I wonder if I shoud cancel our reservations. Please let me know what you all know.
I have not received the "I am a sailor" call either. Since it is the last test, I expect it will be this coming week. Maybe Monday or Tuesday. I was worried that my son would get set back because he missed two days when they pulled his wisdom teeth but according to letters, he is passing all his tests and doesn't expect a delay. The only phone call I have received so far is the one on Mothers Day, but I do get a nice letter every Wednesday. He sounds like he takes pride in the accomplishments and especially performing. Each letter sounds better than the last. Now I'm just trying to figure out how much time I will have him for after graduation. I know he is staying at Great Lakes to attend "A School". How is it decided what advanced training they will be training for? How long is "A School"?
Ladies, are you sure that 931 has gone through Battlestations? This is pretty early for the 900 division to be going through. It is usually during PIR week for the 900 group.
Has anyone heard anything yet concerning Battle Stations for our division? It's too quiet for me..... :( I've been anxiously awaiting a phone call. Am I getting too anxious?
I just the call from my daughter she is
no longer a recruit, but a. Sailor in the World's Finest Navy!
My husband andrew was a ship 02 div 931 also!!!!! Does anyone have sailors who flew to Fort Sam Houston on the 16th? if so i was honored to meet some of them and wish them all the best of luck at becoming HMs
