Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 005 & 006.
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 saw this and thought you guys/ladies might like it
Father, in the coming days, I will need you, but my recruit will need You more! Let her perform her tasks with a sense of duty, not of anger or vengeance. Let her reflexes be quick and her hands steady. Let her head be clear and her eyes sharp.
Let her mind and body be strong and her spirit stronger. God, please stand by my recruit and watch her back when she cannot! Father, I love this recruit of mine! Take from ME; what she needs and give me what she does not. I will pace the nights, if it means she gets some sleep. I will deal with fatigue, if it means she will have energy. I will carry her fear, if it means it gives her courage. I will take her pain, if it means she is healthy and whole. I will take her anger, if it means she is at peace. Take my love and pride and let her feel it! Let her know that I am with her every step of the way! Please, take from me what You can; I give it willingly and with love. It is all I have besides my prayers. Above all, please help my recruit to achieve her goal of becoming…. A United States Navy Sailor! This I ask on bended knee, that which I cannot do without YOU.
VERY Nice picture :-D
Great picture!
