DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

Comment by Robin, a Nuke's mom (MM) on April 30, 2011 at 9:31pm: Congratulations to all the winners of the Captains Cup today! From what was posted on facebook, it sounds like they all had a lot of FUN today! They deserve it!!!

Comment by kim12div160 on April 30, 2011 at 9:16pm: Congrats to everyone for CC today! Especially 809, 165 & yeah 157, would love to hear the chant :)

my son was always involved in sports during school & we had so much fun going to the events & cheering him on, I would have loved to be in the stands today cheering on our kids, whoops SR & Sailors...I am so proud, can't wait for Friday!!!

Comment by velvetlace on April 30, 2011 at 9:12pm: Valtameri---- I want to hear DIvision 157's chant, too.. That is awesome that they have come together as a division working together toward a common goal. Good for the 157!!!!!

Comment by Valtameri on April 30, 2011 at 9:10pm: Congratulations 809, 165, and 157! I want to hear the chant. ;)

Comment by diannep on April 30, 2011 at 8:50pm: Well, hoping that there is more clairty on Monday after the I'm a Sailor calls. When I compose the schedules for some groups, they go smoothly...and then others...changes happen...groups are moved back, etc. UGH! Hate to keep you all in the dark....but figuring if all are ready on Monday for the calls just in case, then at least they won't be missed!

Comment by velvetlace on April 30, 2011 at 8:48pm: All right 157 for the motivational chant. Bravo Zulu!!!!! Hoo-rah!!!!!

Comment by Lennox Reaper on April 30, 2011 at 8:45pm: Yes it is very confusing but THANK YOU diannep because you do bring some light for me. I have one in Div.161 and haven't heard anything she said they did gas chamber Monday and final FPA on Wednesday so I dont know what goes next.

Comment by diannep on April 30, 2011 at 8:44pm: by reading Marylieu's post below from the 4/29 group, you all see the importance of getting the to PIR early! Which she did and the seating was already getting full. Gates to the base open at 6:30. If you are taking a shuttle, be on that 6:30 one from your hotel, or an earlier one if they have it. If you are driving, be in the car line by 6 at the latest (with 12 divisions, there will be a good amount of people!). We did this when there and it was wonderful. 6:30 shuttle, dropped off right at the front gate by 6:40, 2nd in line to go through security, walked over to PIR Hall... and seated by a few minutes after 7. It is well worth it go to early!

Comment by mamasan 4/809 on April 30, 2011 at 8:38pm: BRAVO ZULU 809!

Comment by diannep on April 30, 2011 at 8:38pm: mamasan: I had 809 for Sun night...then was told that 161 and 162 are going Sun night. By adding them, we now have 5 divisions going. That isn't possible. The only other possibility is that 163 and 164 wouldn't go that night and it would be 809 instead on Sunday. The brother divisions always go together--so can't split them up. So we really don't know. I say...all of these divisions need to be ready for a possible I'm a Sailor call on Monday: 161, 162, 809, 163, and 164. They all won't go, but obviously we don't know if 809 is going or 163 and 164 are going. The fact that no one has called from 161 and 162 makes it seem that for sure they haven't gone yet and will be going tomorrow. Confusing, isn't it?
