Ok ladies I'm a little confused. So my husband doesn't play any kind of instrument so I'm confused how he is in the 900. Can some one better explain this to me? Thank you
@love4one. He could of ended up in a 900 div if he ever did any sort of still team or color guard in high school, was in rotc, an eagle scout, or I have heard that if enough people with skill sets volunteer, they will put people with very high test scores in 900 div, because they think it will be easier for them to handle the extra suites. There are non-performing members in every 900 div
@rhonda- thank you. He did do sports in high school and did score really high on his test. Thank you though for the info. I'll take as much as I can get lol
Hi, I received my son's form letter yesterday, and he is assigned to Ship 02 Div 940. I wanted to check to see if any other mom's daughters/sons were assigned to the same division? Thank you
Sorry, I was offline for the weekend! We were told he's DIV 941 on Ship 02 (USS Reuben James). His recruiter kept telling him, "Do NOT get assigned in the 900 Division!" I don't really understand exactly why that was.
My son's recruiter told him the same thing, but when he got there, he joined the 900 division anyway and he is really happy he did. I believe the reason they tell them not to join that division is because it is extra work. In addition to doing the normal basic training, they also have to practice for performances. My son loves his Chief though. Said he is the only one that actually eats with his recruits. Unfortunately this is the last division he will be training.
I'm still waiting for my first letter from my son. I bought the airline tickets to the 8/21 PIR. Working on the places to stay. I really want to hear from him to see how he's doing and exactly what he is doing in Div 941! He plays the drums, but he's 6'4". Body snatcher maybe?
My son is in Div 935 and graduates next Friday, July 10th. Needless to say, I cannot wait to see him again before he heads to his A school the next day. Fortunately, we are local and he can come home for a couple of hours during his liberty and we're letting family & friends come over to visit & cook out all afternoon. My biggest concern is him getting our black lab's hair all over his white uniform!
Becky, shouldn't he be able to change while he's with you? Or are you thinking as soon as you walk in and the lab being excited? How nice of him getting to go home for a little bit.
My Daughter is Ship 02 Div 942 PIE 08/28/2015. Just found out what division 900 is really proud of her. Between her band experience in high school and her CAP honor guard training. I know she can do this.
Seen my SR working the PIR today as Honor guard and body snatcher! It was quick but but I could make him out! So handsome in his uniform. Two weeks to go!!

His brother just had PIR 1/9/15 but was not a 900 division so this is going to be a whole new experience for us.
