DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

Hi shygurl, it's hard enough waiting for boot camp to be over with without adding another week, so this has got to be really hard on you and your SR. I'm sure everyone will agree that our ship and div. are the best and we welcome your SR and yourself.

mostele, you got to admit that's a great picture. Don't know how to enlarge it but I did learn how to save it so I can look at it every day and send it to all the family and friends on facebook.

The random pic of 11/244.  On FB you need to click on photos at the right top corner.  then it opens up all the albums.  The June 28th has our division--(i read in the July 19th thread).  Same lead guy in front.  I cannot see my son.  Ladies, let me know what you see.

Also, Welcome Shygurl!  Funny comment from my father who is a 40 year retired Army soldier.  I told him about our Navy site and how we can chat with each other and and he could not believe it.  He was so tickled.
