On BattleStations dates....YOU all are the ones who will receive these from your SRs. Please be asking. In letters or if they call. Then private message me this date and to anyone else you would like. You can post on the board that you have the BattleStations date for div ____. Then the person can contact you and get it.
Right now, I only have the date for 367/368. It is the same date since they are brother divisions. If you are in this division and know the date, please message it to others in your division if you see their post on here. You can message me too, but my page is "private" so I have to accept you as a friend first. Either way, we will try to get the date to you. Always check the comments on your home page too (bottom of page). Many don't realize that other ladies will contact you sometimes by commenting on your home page.
So, ladies, please be asking your SRs for Battlestations dates. Remember, it is an overnight drill, so they will give you the date that they start, and they become sailors the next morning. Once I get a schedule together, I will send Message to Group...which sometimes arrives to you, sometimes not. But it's the only way I can try and let all know. Again, if some receive this and can pass the dates along to others, it is appreciated. I'm still involved with my mom's illness so not on here as much as I would like to be.
I will always post on here if I send a Message to Group so you know to check your personal emails (not the emails on this site) to see if you received it (even in your spam/junk folders...sometimes it is kicked into that). I will wait for a few more dates before I send Message to Group.
Thanks!

That is so wonderful he wont be alone for Thanksgiving. He is a really great guy!! Im defitinitly going to his meet and greet after the one at the Ramada! :) Any one else want to carpool with me?

That's so wonderful about Sarge...I haven't checked yet if this is done for the Sailors in "A" school...though I am guessing that they will have dinner for them. It will bring back memories for mine as we have gone out to my husbands base and served Thanksgiving dinner to the troops. Ugh...now I'm crying...BUT if all goes well he will be done with "A" school by December and be HOME!

I've been somewhat MIA lately...have some stuff to tend too "off site" LOL that is occupying brain space. An issue with another group and a new PIR group starting...so my apologies. My niche is kinda of "info lady"...but I love chatting with you all and responding with you...I miss it...you ladies support me just as much as I support you. Will try to be back in full swing soon...I do read...just can't post as much.
Here's some fun stuff!

I would like to know when battlestations 21 is, too, please. I am so nervous for my son to pass this test! I write him daily and give him a cheer and tell him to believe in himself and he will do just fine. I am always possitive in my letters:) I am praying for everyone in this PIR 11/10 to pass with flying colors:) Good Luck To All of Them!!!!

You all be sure to be checking the comments on your home page. Many miss these. Sometimes people will comment on your page rather than sending a private message. Just a reminder to check the bottom of your home page!
