MamaValley, I just noticed you wrote division 39, I am thinking it should be 239? If your recruit actually wrote 39 is would not be correct (it happens). I would guess since ship 12 it would be division 239.
I am making that assumption because of the posting about division 240, and that would be the brother division.
Those recruits who arrived at BC the week of May 18th will all most likely have a PIR date of 7/17. Those arriving on the first of the week May 24th, could be in the following PIR. We can only guess because of all the ifs, ands or buts there are to fill divisions and TGs each week.
Hang tight you will all have your form letters soon, and don't worry if it doesn't come right away. The form letter isn't sent until your recruits move from the processing ship into their ship for training. There can be a delay, while waiting for more to arrive!
Hello... I was just wodering when did the recruits with a PIR of 7/17 arrived at bootcamp. I have not received a form letter yet but I am estimating that my son should be graduating around that time. He left for bootcamp on 5/20.
We finally got our letter! Yea!!! Ship 12, Div 39 PIR 7/17 Hurry up July!
Good afternoon! I can't wait for gradation. I miss my baby (recruit) so much.
Good morning!
