Saltybabe your posts are showing up fine on my profile page. I just do not show them as "approved" because of the information you share with me. Some people have a lot of difficulty posting on this site if they are using their mobile devices versus a computer. Sometimes you need to refresh your device as well. 

I am glad things are going well for your sailor and that he is getting closer and closer to PIR!!

Saltybabe - Just saying HI!! I hope things are going well. 

June PIR 2022 - click on the link for the PIR group. 

So now that you have both his ship # and his Division # you should be able to mail letters to him that he can receive. This link has information about graduation - Recruit Training Command - Graduation (navy.mil) -scroll down to where it says Graduation Dates and Divisions. If you click on that, it has another spot to click on and you should be able to scroll down, find his division # and when his PIR should be. 

As for that division, they also put other rates in it as well and they will likely be assisting in various areas during their PIR, either with ushering or as a "body snatcher" to stand and go back and forth in the formation lines to make sure none of the new sailors fall asleep or lock their knees and faint. 

Here is the link again to the ship addresses. Just find his ship number and then fill that in and the division number as shown in the example with the ship address that is listed. 

Saltybabe, yes, your comments are posting on my profile page. I have mine set to moderate them, so that I can view them before they post and are visible to others. Because you are sharing some more personal information with me, I have not allowed them to be shared visibly where others might see them. 

Saltybabe - did you find the information that I was trying to share with you?  If you have difficulties posting on the site you might try using a computer if you are on a mobile device. Also, you might need to reboot the computer, or refresh this page or sign in and out. I was just having some difficulty myself posting something on a group and so I had to sign out and back in again. 

Have you heard anything more from your SR?

This link is from one of the pages on the right side of the BC Mom group page. I didn't even think to look there. I used the RTC website for most of my information when my son was in BC and did not find this site until a week before PIR, so I even forget to look at all the information posted on the group page. Sorry for the delayed reply. 

Saltybabe - Go to this link and read through the information - at the bottom of the page is the ship # & name listed. This still won't tell you his division # but it is better than nothing. 

Ship/Division--How it Works - Navy For Moms (ning.com)  

Hopefully, he can call you with his new mailing address. 

Saltybabe - I have not heard back from those that I reached out to. I will do my best to see if I can get some other help but for now, I would just send a letter to the address that you have, don't put anything in it but just a short note of encouragement and that you need his actual address because it might not get there. 

If he calls, be sure you ask for Ship # & Div #. If we have those two things, then you can use the address page that I gave you the link to and properly address his mail.
