Just got off the phone with my SR. He sounded GREAT! Such a great relief! And by the way, he said the shot in the butt hurt ALOT! He got 10 min which was absolutely wonderful. He said they are down 4 people in their division.
Yahoooo -just got a phone call from my SR - was so glad to hear his voice. He sounded good but I could tell he was really missing us as we are missing him TOO!!!!
mother of 2 - the way he made it sound, it was 4 that were separated. He also said that 02/921 were able to write their first letters today so will be looking for mail mid-week. He also said RDC told them they would have their first mail call tomorrow.
My Son is ship 02 Div 916. He Graduates 2-28-2014 in Chicago. I am driving from Ga. I heard we only get to see him for about 8 hours. Is this true and will they ship him on to A school in Pensacola the next day? Thanks for any answers. I miss him so much and can't wait to see him.
Lisa Harrel : My daughter is also in ship 020 Div 916. From comments in the group PIR 02/28/2014 I believe it is true. We only have about 8hrs to see them if the are shipping out to A school the following day. If they ship out on Sunday then we get the extra time with them but we will know only their schedule during PIR day.
Did you get any call yet from your son how div 916 did in BS 21?
AHawk- Is your SR in Div 921? There are three groups that make up the 900 division. One is what they call Triple Threat - it consists of choir, band and drill team. The second is called Sticks - they are the flag group. The third group is the Ship Staff/Honor Guard. Div 921 is the Ship Staff division. For example, my SR will be manning the door the RTC command and guests walk through during PIR.
My son is ship 02, Div 924 , he just sent me a note that they haven't started training and he's been there for a week. They hadn't gone to medical yet, so training hasn't started.
Any one from the 924 division receive a phone call yet? Any news on training yet? I haven't heard anything. Trying to make travel arrangements for the PIR.
I'm looking for any mom's that have a loved one in 921 that has not joined our facebook page. we have been able to locate some of you but would like to get to know everyone's loved ones while our SR's are doing the same. message me and I can send you all the details.
Call yesterday and mail today. I am so glad to hear from my son. He is so ready to be out of there, but looking forward to reporting to Pennsacola 4/5. Short visit after graduation, but weekenders while he still here in Florida. Proud Navy mom, I am.
Please don't forget to check in and post in your PIR group!!! Some of those sailors who are not in the 900 division will be attending A School with your SRs, and all of you in the same TG will all be attending PIR together.
Carolinagirl. Do you know what your SRs job is during the PIR? Because he will be at this Friday's PIR for the 924 division. If you watch LiveStream you might get a glimpse of him. Or if you know what his "job" is during the ceremony, I'll be there taking random pictures so I can post on the 900 Div FaceBook page.
My son is in 928.....anyone else out there with an SR in that division????? Would like to possibly meet up at PIR meet and greet, maybe get a table together.
