WELCOME TO PIR 11/20/2012

OPSEC OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance. Please take the timeto read the OPSEC and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names of Sailors/Recruits are not allowed on this site. If it is in your username you will need to change your username. If yours is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended. First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture to not include your Recruit at least for the duration of BC. It is also a good idea to make your settings for your Profile Page "viewable only to your friends".

No letter today! :( Really missing my girl! Watching one of her favorite shows tonight and wishing she were here to watch it with me.

Anybody else get letters today?

Comment by Craig on October 18, 2012 at 7:10pm: diannep - Prayers to Brett. I am so sorry to hear of this tragedy.

Comment by Bugsmama on October 18, 2012 at 5:27pm: Thanks for the update. My prayer warrior are still going to cycle prayers all night for Brett and his family. No one left behind or alone!

Comment by diannep on October 18, 2012 at 4:31pm: ...your words bring tears to my eyes....I can't wait to share with his mom (and him!) about the wonderful ladies on this site. Thank you, ladies, from the bottom of my heart. He had a successful surgery (2nd surgery) today to restore blood to his right leg (artery was severed by the bullet and just "tied off" in surgery last night). YAH! Drs were quite happy with the outcome. Another surgery is tomorrow...but this is a "tweeking" surgery...not life threatening. Still not out of the woods...but looking better! Thanks so much for the wonderful prayers for Brett!

Comment by Taylor'sMomShip02Div903 on October 18, 2012 at 3:09pm: Praying for God's healing power & grace to surround this young sailor, Brett & his family...that what the devil meant for evil is now ripped away & only a speedy recovery can now take the place of those injuries. I CLAIM this BELIEVING that God can & will do that which is asked of him, In the precious name of my Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ...AMEN

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on October 18, 2012 at 2:50pm: all this support just gives me goosebumps, I love my Navy Family because of how we all pull together to pray for someone who needs us and deserves our prayers. God bless all of you <3

Comment by Bugsmama on October 18, 2012 at 1:58pm: Calling my warriors now Dianne! We will hold an all night vigil for him here in CA for his health and family. God hear our prayers!!!
