    BS was over. He said he was about to pass out he was so tired, but said

    BS went well.  Said he gets to go to bed at 8 p.m. tonight and sleep until

    Question......Does anyone know how many Honor Recruits they choose for each division for PIR???? Just wondering, just received a letter in the mail that my son was chosen as the Honor Recruit for his Division. YIPPEE! So excited and proud of him!!!
  • alwaysdaddyltlegirl(Ship03Div081

    Come on Div81 start those calls...

  • MountainMama(ship3 div081)

     A big AMEN to that!  I'm about to jump right out of my skin!

  • diannep

    Congrats, myboysmom!  That is wonderful!  What an honor.  I think normally they choose one per division, but it seems that at my son's PIR, there were a couple for one of the divisions?  So not sure.  Regardless, that is wonderful!  And you know what?  HE will be the one standing in front of your division's seating section at PIR...next to the number...so you get to see him right away!  HOOYAH!
  • myboysmom(Ship09/Div078)

    Congrats to everyone that passed BS today....hope you all get a call!!!! Still praying for those yet to finish. I know how the anticipation builds ......mine finished yesterday!!!!
  • diannep

    Congrats 79 and 80 to your new sailors....and HURRY UP 81 and 82!  
  • SuZan

    Mine said they were IT'd after BattleStations too.
  • myboysmom(Ship09/Div078)

    Thanks diannep! I'm so excited the letter said we would be able to see him at 8am during his award ceremony and take pics with him. WHOO-HOO!!!! Can you feel my excitement.....I can hardly contain myself!!!!!!
  • alwaysdaddyltlegirl(Ship03Div081

    what is IT ? can anyone tell me please
  • diannep

    IT=Intensive Training....can go on for a couple of hours...bear crawls, etc...used for discipline. 
  • diannep

    Wonderful, myboysmom!  What an honor!
  • minkur

    what it'd after? Does that mean no calls today?
  • myboysmom(Ship09/Div078)

    Some of the guys may have fallen asleep after BS. My son said yesterday that some of the guys in his div feel asleep and they had to workout for 1 1/2 hrs. So they were extremely exhausted. So sorry for your sailor.....

  • jackinixon

    Yay!!..I just heard from my son after battlestations.  He is so excited for PIR.  He just informed me that he had the highest final test score in his division and his brother division with a 4.93,  I am soooo proud and excited.  Can;t wait til next friday....see you all there!

  • bsmom

    82 passed!  Just got my call!!!!!  Very tired and excited. 

    6 days girls!!

  • JennyL

    YEAH bsmom!! Glad to hear it!!! Very Excited!! Still waiting though, sitting at my desk waiting...
  • MountainMama(ship3 div081)

    He's on the phone now...just passed him off to my mom a minute.  I have a SAILOR!!!  Gotta talk to him some more...post later!
  • Dani_Girl (ET wife)

    My husband said that Battlestations wasn't too bad and that it seemed like they made it so that everyone could pass. He said that no one dropped out due to PT. :) The only ones set back were for disciplinary reasons. Hooray to all of our divisions and to our wonderful new sailors! 

     

    He was really tired and said that he'd been up since about 0430 yesterday and can't wait for "tapping out" at 8pm tonight. Our call was cut short (to about 20 minutes instead of an hour) because apparently some of the newly branded sailors decided that they didn't need to follow orders and shave this morning, for which everyone in his division was punished. 

    :( Oh well, we get to see them in 6 days.

     

    Congrats to all hearing from their new sailors and good luck to those still waiting. :)

  • zacksmom

    MustangMom-my son is ET too. I guess they will be going to A-school together.
  • LornaJ (Ship 3 Div 81)

    He is good but tired---They are looking forward to Captains Cup tomorrow!

    CONGRATULATIONS  DIVISION 081 !

  • JennyL

  • MustangMom (Ship03, Div 080)

    Zacksmom - That is cool!  He said they don't move to school until Feb 26th and he is not sure when they start school. He sounded excited! Good to know who they

  • tstms2003

     

    My son will be an ET also.

  • Missa'sMom

    My daughter wants me to send her makeup to her for graduation. Does anyone know if I send it to her FedEx or UPS overnight if she will be able to get it in time? I will be out there on Thursday all day but I am not sure if I could even drop it off for her.
  • shetaz5360 (ship09 div078)

    Hello everyone... so I got my call yesterday.... I'm a Sailor.  I was so happy and Brian sounded exhausted.  he was so happy to have completed his physical fitness test... he had to do the run 3x because he got sick.. he passed and then did Battle Stations.  He was almost crying because he made it.  I am so ready for graduation.  I know I missed somewhere what color we are going to wear for ship 9 div 078 so can someone fill me in.  I told my son his job now was to pray for nice weather for our flight so we make it.  On Saturday he heads to conneticut for 7wks and then to Portland for 12 months.  YEAH!!! closer to home so we can visit.  I am so happy for everyone that is getting ready for graduation and for all the new comers just starting this journey... know that here is a place of peace and comfort, where you can cry, scream, and just read on.  I honor all that have come before and all that are still.  God Bless to everyone... Hoorah!!  GO NAVY!

  • tstms2003

     

    My son is sick. He sounds terrible. Now that BS is over he's going to sick call tomorrow morning. He refused to go until BS was over. He said no one in his Div is grad-n-go. They are all staying until Tuesday morning. They lost 5 during PFA. They will get one more chance next week and if they pass still graduate with them. 

  • zacksmom

    MustangMom-He mentioned he might have all weekend liberty with us. That would be really cool!!

    Wearing my pink scarf Friday!!

    Is anyone else out there staying at Homewood Suites in Lincolnshire?

    10-day forcast looks like a heat wave with some rain.

  • Northwest Annie

    Congratulation to everyone who's passed BS. My son doesn't go until Sunday night. I'm envious of those who've gotten the call. Can't wait for Monday afternoon.

     

    I got my ribbons today. Thank you LaLa!! They are really nice. Bigger than I expected. It's so cool that you've found a way to give of yourself through your creative talents. I can hardly wait to wear mine!!

  • Renick ET

    I am in the same boat, got to wait until Monday for my call. I am so happy for everyone, but I am going to have a hard time getting through the wknd! I'll bet there are a lot of tired sailors tonight.
  • Tchrmom Lisa

    I have a question, may be silly. Now that my son is a Sailor, how is he addressed by others in the Navy? I guess he was Sailor Recruit John Doe or Doe, what is their "title"? I want to hang a banner out on the front of the house, and want to say "Congratulations {title} Blah, Blah" You've made us proud!! I just want to get it right...
  • bsmom

    We received our division t-shirt in the mail yesterday.  So worried about BS that I forgot to mention it.
  • navymom99(ship09 div075)

    We got our call. She is now a Sailor! I have never been so proud! Can not wait to her and all of you guys next Friday.
  • navymom99(ship09 div075)

    Oh my daughter has lost her voice and sick but she was so happy she was crying!
  • zacksmom

    tstms2003-We will be checking in the Homewood suites on Thursday. We are driving from VA. I just can't wait to get there!!
  • navymom99(ship09 div075)

    Around what time do you think you will be getting there zacksmom? Do you think you will be able to come to the meet and greet?
