That is awesome ladies!!! My SR told me the call might be sometime in the evening after the ceremony. You never know though, it could change. My husband sounded better also on this call. He said he does have a cold and so does most of the others in his division. He also told me where he is standing and to look for him and then i can run to him LOL. He told me about the flag that some of the recruits made and it has Smurfs on it, i love it!!!!

Got a call from my SR too!!! So happy to hear from him :) He sounded so much better! Can't lie, the first call made me nervous because he sounded so different. But he's back to himself :) We had tons of laughs and told me some funny things about his RDCs too haha! Yup, Battlestations is on Thursday, Captain's Cup is on Saturday. Does anyone know about what time we should expect phone calls on Friday after Battlestations? I work in a hospital, where I don't always get the best service, so it always makes me a little nervous about missing calls!
Comment by annamichael on April 10, 2011 at 8:15pm
lbmom, wow! I need to be sure to ask my SR where he stands. Hopefully on the end somewhere so I can pick him out.. I'm sure they all look alike!! Congrats on your call! Hopefully, div 144 gets one too!

Jenacfs, we also received a call from our son. That was so nice they were rewarded with a call. My son also did say that Battlestation is Thursday and he said for us to expect a call Friday sometime. Has able to tell us where he will be standing in the division at PIR.  I can't wait to see my son.

Comment by annamichael on April 10, 2011 at 7:58pm
YAY Jen!!!! Congrats!!! So happy for you and your SR!
Comment by Jenacfs on April 10, 2011 at 7:47pm
Just got a call from my SR in division 139. They were rewarded a call tonight. I am so happy i got to hear his voice. The battlestation for his division is this thursday night until friday morning and i can't wait for his " I am a Sailor" call. He sounded great and is so over Basic and over the immature people there. Tomorrow is the Fire Fighting part and then he said it will be pretty boring for the rest of the week until battlestation. I am so proud of him, he is doing great!!!
