Good morning everyone, I hope you all have a great day :-)
Thank you RuthL.. I was thinking the same thing.. Till I hear from him I will just use the ship/division i was given first.. Thank You ladies!
Navymom-Call his recruiter. They can get the information for you. I hate to bother them, but this would make me call.
diannep.. I enlarged it, its the exact pose he did on his Senior pic. His lips, neck ( i know weird) is the same. i will have to wait and see. Its just that I have already book my hotel for the PIR on 1/6 and if i need to change it i need to do it asap. If i could send u all the 2 pics i would. Unless i post them here but is that allowed. I would love the input. Crazy Mommy here. can we say Cuckoo...lol
NavyMom: Are you absolutely positive that was your son in the pik? I ask because I saw my son in a pik...without his hat on....was sure it was him. Printed it out. So happy to see him...well, it wasn't him! WOW! How could I not know my own son? But sometimes with the same "hair do", uniform, etc...they look alike. Just maybe, it wasn't your son in the pik and he still is in Div 30? Hopefully he will call/write soon and can confirm this.
In the meantime, assume that he is still in 30 and try not to worry about it...my son was asmoed when there so I know that they have to let you know if there is any change in the PIR date. He called me immediately when asmoed, and then again when put back in a division.
Its the date on the form letter. I asked RTC they said it could change if a recruit had a set back but that couldnt be it cuz then he would graduate later rather than earlier.. When did ur loved one get to GL? Thank U!
Yes, I was going to ask the same thing, FTLW. If the form letter said Div 30, that should be where he is. Any changes to the PIR date mean that they have to let you know this. Or did you get the Div 30 info from his recruiter before the form letter was sent out? Sometimes their info is not correct.
NavyMom...have you received your form letter?
Ok Ladies Need some HELP! I was told my son was in ship12 div 030. RTC posted a pic of another division and When i enlarged the photo it seems my son is in the pic. I even called his sisters into my room one by one and told them "this is what they look like in RTC". so why did they point out the same person I think is my son? I am worried now cuz if his division changed then his PIR is a week earlier which is 12/29 not 1/06. Can any1 help.. plz..
