My friend checked my mail from last week and read me a letter over the phone :)

 

It was from the 18th and he said next week (this week, hell week) they had two tests, weapons quals, a PFA, a personal inspection, and a drill inspection. He said they really don't get IT too often which surprises him.

They keep getting a lot of people who where set back due for various reasons put into their division which is difficult for the division as a whole.

We received two envelopes with 4 letters.  He doesn't write long letters but he does tell me/us about his day.
Comment by cajunldr(ship 03 Div 086) on January 27, 2011 at 5:26pm

Two letters today, one from the 20th the other from the 23rd.

 

She is feeling under the weather but gutting it out since this coming week (the one we are in right now) is Hell week.  She had a root canal on the 14th and it is still hurting her as of the 23rd. She was due back to the dentist Monday the 24th, hope it is going better.

 

Said she has made some friends, but they do not get much time for chatting.  She is looking forward to a nice warm bed at the hotel and would like to go into Chicago to get a big slice of that Pizza the locals keep bragging about!!!!

 

She also said there were not too many there that knew about N4M's so she does not think to many moms, spouses, family would be on here. She also said for us to team up with Div 085, that is their brother/sister division.

DebBee ~ Me either. I was hoping someone had, so we would have news.

I am hoping my SR scores very well he has trained with his dad for years with weapons. But you never know if someone is screaming the whole time or not.
My son did tell me earlier on that someone's mom sent cookies. Uh OH!!! And the RDC's opened them and made them all watch them eat the cookies, but they didn't get a beat down or anything for it. They actually thought it was funny. I send a card to him and he had to open it in front of the RDC but they just looked at it and moved on. So I know they sometimes check but nothing too bad has happened. :)

Good luck to our recruits as they complete their weapons quals today. I can't wait to hear what score my SR earned!
Comment by Sailor's Wife 64 on January 27, 2011 at 12:39pm

I think I send him so many questions he doesn't have time to answer them all so he doesn't answer any of them ;) I asked him where he was standing before, he must have forgot to answer. My guess is towards the back because he's on the taller side (6'2").

No news on that Deb but he did say that the RDCs don't make them do pushups for each piece of mail like some RDCs do.

They should be able to tell you where in the unit they are marching.  Mine stated she was 1st up right behind the flag.  But to be honest, she could be in a thousand others and I will be able to tell her immediately.  There is something about your child that you know instinctively, anywhere.

Not unfortunate for us! We'll have an easier time finding them ;)

 

Supporters of male SRs will only look to a sea of 44 look alikes rather than 80 or so. Supporters of female SRs will have it even easier :)

Comment by cajunldr(ship 03 Div 086) on January 25, 2011 at 4:32pm
She also said there were 20 females and 44 males in the div which makes them the smallest div hence they all have to double over on their duties to cover what a normal div of 75 to 80 would cover.
