Hi - I posted earlier when I first found it, but our SRs will be performing at the next two Friday PIRs. I hope to be able to watch it live (or after when posted if work gets in they way). I watched the 11/7 PIR on the RTC You Tube channel. Our SRs will be performing in the first section. I know which state flag my son has so I can focus in on that. Below is a synopsis of what they do - I copied all info below from the 900 N4M group.
Sticks (Flags) does an incredible march perfectly timed and executed to the drum corps cadence. It is their job to present the flags for every state in the union. They are lined up by height, so the flow looks better, so your recruit will probably not get to carry his/her home state flag. They also honor those who have gone before by presenting the POW and MIA flags, as well as the US flag and the US Navy flag in the Color Guard.
903: Sticks (Flags): PIR 11/26/2014 TG 03 - 11 Divisions (019-026, 801, 802, and 903)
(Division 903 will also perform during the 11/14/2014 PIR and the 11/21/2014 PIR.)

My SR wrote his girlfriend that we should be getting "the call" on Monday afternoon if the schedule doesn't change. I felt better after she told me that yesterday - of course I was starting to worry. Now we'll most likely be in the car heading to GL when the call comes...

I received my last letter from Boot Camp on Thursday and my SR said, we would hear from her Monday. They will do great!!!
