a push company means they get started later than the average 7 to 8 weeks and push through boot camp faster in order to make it through to PIR at ana earlier date

Hi Lauren's mom,
Have you heard anything yet?
My son shipped on 9/7 (Tues) and is also Ship 2, DIV 951. I've gotten one letter and the form letter from him, but that's all. Also got the 'kid in the box' without the kid. Hopefully you'll get the first letter this week, if you haven't already gotten one. It's tough, I know...this is my first time, and I'm completely new to the Navy world. -

Sorry , I'm always in trouble for my Navy Talk :) NWUs are the Navy Working Uniform, Its a digital blue similar to what the other services wear as a working Uniform. Only we can not wear them in public :(
Also they count the days and weeks as 1-1= first week first day, they wont make it to 8-5 :) as their PIR is on 7-5 LOL
Today is 1-4. -

Has anybody in Ship 02/ Div 951 gotten a letter or phone call? I keep seeing folks in other divisions with the same PIR date (11.5.10) who have received both....
I hope all is well for these guys! -

Hi lauren's mom! my wife is in the same division and i've heard from her. in fact, i got her box of 2 written letters from her, the PIR form letter, and the insurance papers. i got the first 15/30sec call and one last week. The fact that you haven't received any of the following comes as a shock to me. I was told of this by one of the mom's I talk to on the chat. The best thing that i think of is for you to call the Public Affairs office and see what's up, because that's very strange. Please keep me up to date.
Also, when did your daughter, or son, ship out -

Wait wait don't call the public affairs office...if thisinfor gets back to the RDC it will be hard on your daughter...remember they are adults and even though we worry and trust me I worry like the best of them...singling them out by making any kind of calls or writing emails is harmful to them...the RDCs like nothing better than to say "mommy called, or hubby called or wifey called" it cna result in extra physical training, intensive training and simply being embarrassed which adds to their stress...just hang in there...and remember no news is good news no matter how tough that is to hear. I am sorry you are shocked Jersey but lots of folks have not heard from their recruits yet.
