Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 369 & 370.
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!!!

I had received my letter from my Son also, he says his Chief is hilarious and makes so many jokes, BUT, they can't laugh cause if they do they have to do intensive training. He said, needless to say he will be buff, which I thought was funny. And looks great in his uniform. I can't wait to see him in 39 days :) Looking forward to also receiving a phone call soon.
Hey did anyone sr get paid yet??
I love reading all of your posts with tidbits of information about what your SR's are experiencing and putting in their letters. Collectively I/we can get a sense of how things are going within the entire division. I report everything back to my husband because believe it or not, he's having a harder time dealing with our son's absence. :)
My husband was the one who was freaking out the most before our SR left. He is better with it all now. Some very excellent prayers conducted by leaders in our church the Sunday before he left, really put my husband's mind at ease.
I found you Markelle, hahaha. How cute that your father misses my son.
