No one has posted on FB with 047 or 048, if that helps
045/046 are Ship 11
CatMom, After this TG there will not be another PIR until 12/31, so these two divisions may or may not be here. It is more of a double check to see where this TG ends, and I am guessing it ends with 045/046 with the information we have so far.
ellen0502 & diannep,
I posted a request for the info on Divisions 047 and 048 in Boot Camp Moms. They should really be in the next PIR group since this one already has 11 divisions according to what is posted on Boot Camps Moms~~
ellen: Did you post your question about the ship number on Bootcamp Moms too? I'm wondering if we have many on here yet in 047/048?? Maybe some are still finding this PIR group.
Remember that your SRs cannot write personal letters until they have been there about 2 weeks and the Recruit Mail Petty Officer is trained. They will have these letters collected, usually on a Sunday (maybe this weekend?) and then they are given "held" mail. SO their letters to you may ask why you haven't written...remember, they wrote you before they received your letters! After this initial mail delivery, they receive it M-F, but only can mail out once a week....Mondays.
Booked flight, hotel and car for Dec 12 PIR. Holy cow!!!!
day 11, still no mail:( I am sticking with the "no news is good news mantra". But, would love to know he is doing ok.
