Comment by natavillage on December 15, 2010 at 11:15am: Thanks for the info about PRT. My P write me his last results he ran 9:24 push ups 111 and sit-ups 121. Guess I have nothing to worry about till BS.

Comment by B's proud mom ship03 div027 on December 15, 2010 at 10:06am: I just want to thank everyone for the last week or so. Like I said before, I wish I had found you all sooner but am very thankful I DID find you. When I don't hear anything myself, I can read little snippets here from you and your sailors and it makes me feel better!

This is what I'm assuming (I do know better than to assume,lol): If everything goes ok for the PT test, I won't hear anything. Did anyone confirm BS for 03/027 for today the 15th?

Comment by Megan- [ship 02, division 906] on December 15, 2010 at 9:47am: Is it true that division 906 is doing battle stations the 20th? That's cutting it a little close don't ya think? Also, on the phone my husband told me last weekt that they have 12 mins to run the mile and a half. Can anyone confirm the time they have to complete it, because if it is really 9.5 minutes I'm kind of worried. Please let me know. Thanks ladies. ONE MORE WEEK!!!!!

The 1.5 Mile Run

For the 1.5 mile run, candidates are asked to run the 1.5 miles as fast as they possibly can. Combining walking, jogging and running is allowed, but the event is timed. In order to obtain a passing score, sailors are encouraged to run for a majority of the time, resting when only absolutely necessary. The sex and age of the person is considered when scoring. For example, to obtain an "excellent-medium" score a 17- to 19-year-old male must complete the 1.5 mile run in nine minutes and thirty seconds. However, a 30- to 34-year-old female has 13 minutes and 15 seconds to complete the same event and obtain the same score.
Curl-Ups
During the test, candidates have two minutes to complete as many curl-ups as they can. All curl-ups must be done correctly to qualify. Sailors are allowed to take breaks as much as they want during the designated two minutes. Like the other events, the standards for each category vary. To even be scored, sailors must complete a minimum of 31 to 50 curl-ups, depending on age and gender.
Push-Ups
Like curl-ups, candidates have two minutes to complete as many push-ups as possible. All push-ups must be done correctly to qualify. Candidates may break as often as possible but are only allowed to do so in the "up" position. Depending on age and gender, a minimum standard between five and 42 push-ups is set for sailors taking the test.

Comment by nanny2 on December 15, 2010 at 12:34am: Hi still no word from my son, I was shocked when the first letter came, not a writer but then I was getting a letter per week now nothing. Anyone heard from ship-03 div- 031. I'm like everyone else would like to have an idea when Bstations are. Everyone traveling to graduation Fri be safe & I pray the weather lets up. Here in Ky they are calling for freezing rain Wed- Thurs, hopefully not as bad as Jan 09.

Comment by priscilla; FC wife on December 15, 2010 at 12:14am: Anyone know when divs 31&32 are having BS 21? Husband's letter made it seem like it's on the 19th, but I'm just wanting confirmation.

Comment by Sean'sMom (ship12 Div 029) on December 14, 2010 at 11:29pm: woohoo! just got off the phone with my SR!!! had to send itinerary to the PO even though i sent it to scheduling and got confirmation. Sounds like BS21 is Sunday night
