navygirlfriend. There are no "all girl" divisions. There are all male divisions and integrated (girl/boy) divisions. The integrated divisions have separate barracks but train together.

I have listed all of the brother divisions in this PIR group up in the BattleStations discussion group up top.

cmom- i haven't heard from my husband since last week. usually during the week, letters come thursday for me, so hopefully i get one tomorrow. But it sounds like the division took a turn since his last phone call. Hope they get it together now that it is almost a week later since your letter. My husband did tell me their brother division is 149.

i had a lady on facebook ask me about ship 12 division 154. my boyfriend is in this division and her sister is as well but she said her sister told her it was an all girl division. how does this work? are they in the same division just seperated or do we have it all confused and its co-ed lol.

dmb2549 - my SR is in the same div as your hubbie - One of the letters I got this Monday said that they did Marlinspike "yesterday" and the letter was dated 31st.
So I'm sure it was not 150 :o( I think they do 2 per day?? My SR spoke of how many violations div 150 got and he also mentioned a brother division and their violation numbers - I don't know who the brother division is but maybe JessiciaB or someone else might???
