DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Welcome to the Division Discussion for Divisions 231 and 232
These two divisions are brother divisions and will be training together from the beginning through BS21 their final test. Your SRs, soon to be SAILORS, are becoming friends, and some of them may be heading to A School together.
Get to know each other, your SRs are!
Please still use the Main Wall of the PIR Group to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion area as often as we would like.
Every single question that is asked is important
Every single concern is genuine
Every single member is important to us
We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.
Hang in there!!!

Good Morning - Happy July 1st everyone...we are almost there!!!
Yep, we are! It's going to be a looong day tomorrow. We have to wait until 7 pm to expect a call because we are in West Africa and so are five hours ahead of GL.
Thanks for the info, Navymom9828. I'm always happy to hear more of what and how they're all doing.
Good Morning from Oregon...we are one day closer to PIR!!!! Today is letter day at my house...Poor mailman, the stocker mom is back to get her mail!!!!
No calls. 232..Do we think they did BS last night? I got a private message of a date later in the week. You can send me a message if you want the date. Have all of you also been following this PIR on Face book?
Well, good night again,ladies. Looks like we've got a weekend of waiting ahead of us. Jon leaves for the USA late Monday night (6pm GL time). I'm hoping he doesn't miss getting to be part of the call if it comes that day!
Happy Fourth of July!!
Sounds like there was a change in the date they were scheduled to go. I know for sure they were originally scheduled to go through this past Wed night, but that doesn't mean it happened---sometimes there are delays. No worries....they will be first to go through in this division, so it should happen early next week. It will NOT happen tonight or tomorrow night. They do not do them on Fri/Sat nights.
