I got a call from my son today too! He also said hell week wasnt that bad. It sounds like our group is doing very well. They have earned a total of five flags, and everyone appears to be passing their tests. Which is awesome!

Received a call from my daughter yesterday. She earned the call and got to talk to her about 20 minutes and then she was going to call her dad. Said her final PT test will be 3/30 and battlestations for her division will be April 4th and 5th. She said the division has earned several flags (not really sure what that means) and she has earned 3 ribbons and she was at the NEX picking them up.

Hi Ladies. Thought I would check in.
I finally received my FIRST phone call from my SR who happens to be our RCPO for the group. He said the group was doing really well and is staying strong. Says their cheif is tough but fair and they all like him. He talked as though everything was making sense and he and the group have adjusted to military life well. Told me battle stations are on the Tuesday before PIR. He earned a medal for shooting. Very proud of him. Didn't know he shot that well. Maybe scout camp paid off. lol. He says he now likes being organized. Failed one inspection early on and said that was it. Been trying to excel ever since. The whole division is stepping up and maturing. His words. We should all be very proud. They are doing great!
Side note, finally booked the Ramada for hubby. I can't come, just don't have the funds. So he will see you gals Thursday evening at the meet and greet.
Keep looking for photos on the web site!! Good pic of the drummers. If your son/daughter plays the drums, you can see them. Mine is the drum major. Still trying to march correctly. Just not his strong point. 8th notes are the biggest struggle for him. Hope he doesn't get in more trouble because of this. He really is trying. Not in the photos yet.
My son told me everyone is getting along and friends with each other. Yippee! His last letter named most of them by name as being buddies. Happy.
Hang in there ladies. Almost there!
