    4 divisions went through last night.  I think it was 125, 126, 127 & 128.  

  • aznavymom44

    Thanks Karen. Yes, mine is in 128. Just wondered what happened, but that makes sense. I know a few don't get to go if they didn't pass tests this week. Patiently waiting for my call......

  • Natalia

    Thank you all. But what if my son will not call me. Not today, not tomorrow. Is it some another way to find out.
  • splachte

    Can you email Div 131. My son told me which day but want to confirm and make sure things haven't changed. Thanks.
  • CristyJ Ship 13 Division 133

    So from what I'm reading Div 133 has not gone through yet? So if not does anyone know if they go on Monday?
  • diannep

    Those who have not heard from their new sailors in 125-128, be sure to check FB too since some get on the computer before they get to the phones.  If you didn't receive a call, it could be that your new sailor had watch and will call later today or tomorrow. 

    Congrats to the new sailors of PIR 04/04!

    Cristy:  Have your phone ready Tues afternoon and Wed afternoon.  Not totally sure which night your division goes through.

  • diannep

    If any of the SRs who were to go through last night had not passed their final tests, you should have received a call from them yesterday saying that they were not doing BattleStations and may not graduate.  If you didn't get that call, assume that they went through and hopefully you will get your call soon.  They have until BattleStations day for their division to pass their final tests.

    I love it when the Sailor calls come in. So much excitement :)

  • encourager

    Hi when will the next battleship be run
  • diannep

    encourager:  They should resume BattleStations on Monday night, looks like they could be done with the groups finishing Wed morning, but you never know! 

  • encourager

    We are trusting no matter what.

    Captains Cup going on this morning for this PIR group!  Lots of athletic fun competition between the divisions!

    Good Morning!

    Some of 921 are at Ricky Heaven.  From what some Moms have heard, 921 won.  Haven't heard from my SR, 1/2 went today, the other 1/2 goes tomorrow.

  • Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons

    We also heard on facebook that 921 won at Captains cup and I heard it is an all male division. I would love to know if it is really all male. I have been helping here almost 4 years and I don't remember there ever being and all male performing division.

  • Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons

    So sorry I was MIA today. My sailors have been home on leave and today was my last day with them. I took my daughter and grand baby shopping today and to lunch and then more shopping. We were gonna get pedicures but ran out of time lol. I sure am going to miss them. This is the latest pic of them :)

  • HollySue

    Looks like there are 3 meet and greets on Thursday April 3rd. Has anyone signed up for one? Which one?
  • CatMom509

    Lala,

    What a sweet time you had today with your Sailor daughter and grandbaby~~ ((( HUGS)))

  • diannep

    So sweet, Lala!
    Good Morning All !

    HollySue:  Sarge's MeetandGreet is by far the best, full of info, good food, best attended!

  • HollySue

    Thanks diannep. That is the one we will attend. :)

    A Very Good Morning to You!!

    921 did win the Captain's Cup.  Not sure about it being all male, I am thinking that it may only have 1 or 2 females in it.  From watching PIR live stream, I have only seen 1 female in the rifle corp.

  • LovesASailor

    Hello Everyone! So excited PIR is this Friday! If your SR receives honors during graduation will the family be notified ahead of time?
  • diannep

    Yes, LovesASailor:  If a sailor is an Honor Guard, there is a special ceremony before PIR for families/those sailors.  You are notified by letter.  I would think you would have received it by now, but you never know with mail service!

    I think the 900 divisions are male/female.  Not sure they have an all-male 900 division since it is a performing division and would include both genders, I would think.

  • lori

    Since my son left for boot camp, we moved and I just started a new job, so I apologize for my lack of participation.  I have received several letters; our son says he is actually having fun,YAY!  However, we haven't received any recent calls and his last call he said we may not hear from him until we see him at graduation.  I see on the comments that many of you have received calls after battle stations. Should I worry if I don't hear from him?  He is Ship 09 Div 129.  Thanks for your input. 

  • ellen0502

    This 900 division is an all male division. I know because I just posted their Trivia Tuesday picture from the RTC in the 921 division discussion. :)

  • Freedock7

    Div 921, that won the Captain's Cup is indeed an all male division.  My son is in it.  The picture is really cool.  This was the first glimpse of my son in 60 days.  HooYay.

  • Arpoc mom Donovan

    Hello everyone. Still wsiting to hear of meet n greet time before graduation.
  • diannep

    Thanks, Freedock and ellen, for clearing that up!  Hmmm....just never knew that!  New things to learn each day!

    Arpocmom:  Are you talking of Sarge's MeetandGreet held the night before PIR?  5 to 9 pm....at the Sundance Saloon (closed off to the public....family friendly event!).  You can find it listed under EVENTS to the left of this page, towards the bottom.  Click on the link and you can RSVP there!

  • Busymom408

    Hello all,
    Lori my son is also with Ship 09 Div 129. We've not received a call as of yet either so you're not alone. Don't worry, stay positive and keep your phone by your side :)
  • diannep

    Expecting I'm a Sailor calls this afternoon from 921/129/130, we think!  Calls will come in after 2pm Central time.  Keep those phones close...this will be a great call!  :-)

    Good Morning!

  • ellen0502

    myMimzy, Your sailor will call in the afternoon the day BS is complete. The final list for PIR would have been submitted so it is too late to get them on the list for PIR, but they can watch the livestream and then see you sailor after PIR.

  • diannep

    If 129/132 went through BattleStations last night, then 921 didn't go.  Only up to 4 divisions a night can go through.  Tonight would be the last night of BattleStations for the remaining divisions.

  • HawaiiKat

    What divisions have already gone through BS? My SR is 921 but hoping we they went in last night..

  • my2boyz (ship 11 div 131)

    Got my call also!! Congrats everyone!!!

  • lori

    Just received my call, div 129!  So happy and proud and excited for Friday's ceremony. Congrats everyone.

  • girl chief

    She's a SAILOR!!!!!  She sounded tired but was so happy.  We were so proud...tears of joy...and from her Dad, too.  Thank the Lord.  Congrats to everyone else.  See you all on Friday.  {--|o

    PS - she said that everyone in 129 who went thru BS passed.
