Smoke2012, There is a link to a page about Ships and Divisions here too. Just under the member icons on the right side of this page there is a column with the pages. All of those titles are clickable links.

Your SRs will not get picked on for receiving too many letters, and trust me it is almost impossible to receive "too many" letters while in BC. Your letters are the only contact your SRs have of the outside world.

Write to them about the weather, your grocery store shopping trip, their pets, cleaning their rooms, lack of laundry now etc. They want and need to hear from you!!!!

We will start separate division discussion for divisions and their brother divisions as soon as we have confirmation from the RTC as to exactly what divisions are in this TG.

Get to know each other as a group. You will all be attending PIR together, possibly the meet and greets, and your SRs are becoming buddies. Some of your SR will attend school together even if they are not in the same division in BC, some may end up stationed together, and who knows they may also become friends for life. :)

Smoke 2010,  Search  Ship/Division--How it works.  I had the same question the other day.  Lemonelephant sent the link labeled above.  Sorry, I tried to copy the link, but my tablet is not cooperating.

Ships are the building that you SRs are "housed in while in BC. Each Ship has a number assigned to it, for instance Ship 12 is the USS Triton.

All division are filled in numerical order and start over at the beginning of the Navy fiscal year. So regular divisions start with 001, SpecOps divisions 801 and "performance"  901.

This TG started in the 36th week of the Navys Fiscal year, so TG 36. Regular divisions in this group started with division 265 (the 265th division this Navy fiscal year).

If there is an 800 division in the TG it would follow numerically the last SpecOps divisions so it would be 815 (the fifteenth 800 division this year). Don't know if there is one in this group or not.

For the 900 divisions they generally are numbered according to the TG week so this 900 division would be 936. If there wasn't a 900 division in the last TG there would be two in this one and they would be 935 and 936. When the Navy has a week with no TG started the 900 division will skip that weeks division number.

Start sending your letters to your SR as soon as you received the form letter. Don't wait to get a personal letter from them. They will probably start receiving mail before they can send mail.

They don't get picked on by you know who if they are receiving too many letters do they? My mom is worried about that - my mom has sent one- I have wrote 3- my husband has wrote 1 - and his brothers put a short note to him in 1 card????

Comment by MomLovesRyan Ship 09 Div 266 on May 31, 2013 at 8:13pm

When will Ship or Div groups start forming? My son is Ship 09 Div 266. Will there be separate groups for the ship (09) and separate groups for the division (266)? Or will there be a Ship 09 Div 266 group? Sorry, I sound so naive.....but, I am!!! :)
