Does any one have a SR in ship 07 division 044.  I have found members in div 043 and 045 but noone in divison 044! Perhaps it is because I have a daughter in division 044 and that is a women's division???

Hi ladies, I just started a group for our ship & division!
http://www.navyformoms.com/group/ship7divsion044pir11411
We just heard of this website when our son mentioned it in his first phone call, He is in this division and it seems this is a Grad n Go division. :( We weren't expecting that. We were hoping to spend more time with him at graduation. Has anyone else heard the same?
I heard my son is also grad n go. I don't know where the "go" is to yet.
my daughter mentioned Grad and go, but Im not sure where she will be going. I have some good anxiety over it right now. I would like to spend as much time as possible with her.
kat find out where he'll be going to A school at..either he or his recruiter can tell you.
His recruiter says he is staying in Great Lakes. Will I be able to bring his cell phone and other personal items for him?
We are bringing a suitcase full of her stuff to the motel. She is grad and go and will stay in Great Lakes. I understand she can't take anything back to boot camp with her but there is a private storage business on or near the base that can be rented on a weekly basis. Then when she moves to the A school location she can pick it up .
my daughter is in ship 07 div 044. Hope all is well.
Hi all!  My daughter is with Ship 07 Div 044.  She will be leaving for A school early the day after PIR.  I will be attending with my mother and so look forward to seeing her!  I know she has made some good friends there and hope to meet them as well.  She went with the group on Christmas Day to Indiana and had an absolutely wonderful time.  I wish to thank the organization that was responsible for putting it together, anyone know who they are?  Found some pics of her on this website and I can not tell you how good it felt to see her smile again.  Best of luck to each and every grad and congrats to all the family members.

It was the First Baptist Church of Hammond. Nate's Mom (Wendy) ;P worked her tail off and took pictures...her daughter posted them.  Here is a link to her blog: http://www.navyformoms.com/profiles/blogs/attention-division-36-43-...

 

I see she is one of your friends so you can send her a message or comment on her page. Hope that helps.

 

I wish my daughter would have been able to be a part of the event.  She was sent home on medical discharge on Dec. 14th...she was on Ship 07 Div 044...I'll private message you...maybe your daughter knew her.

Best of luck to your daughter!

Hi I want to see the pictures, where I found it?. My sister was there. Thanks
