Hey ladies, My husband is in 09/324! I have been on the RTC facebook page looking for someone with loved ones in his division and here you are! :] We need to start playing the Monday and Tuesday games so we can see our SR's! I try every time but no luck so far! Have any of you heard from them? I received 2 letters last week and a phone call, but he said that the division was not working well together as a team. :[ SO lets tell them to start getting it together so they can earn those phone calls home!!

My husband said the same thing about trouble makers, and he hoped they would leave or shape up because they are getting everyone else beat. I only got a call because my husband's recruiter didnt put our sons birth certificate in his file and so they needed me to fax it over, non the less i was so happy to hear that voice! Im hoping they started working together so they can send mail our more regularly and earn some phone calls! Yes definitely start playing the games, I would love to see our boys!!!

Great to "talk" with other mom's from 09/324!!!! -

Yesterday I got 7 letters and then a 45 minute phone call! It was a great day! My SR sounded so good, he said that the division went from 94 to 82 and since then they have been working better together, but there is still some people who cant get it together. So frustrating! He also said that they all have to go to reclassifications on Tuesday.

I wanted to give everyone a heads-up who ordered ribbons from me to wear to PIR. I am almost finished with all the ribbons for this PIR group that have been paid for and I am shipping them tomorrow and Tuesday. Please let me know what you think of them when they arrive and thanks for allowing me to make them for you. Let me know if you have any questions at all. I hope you all have a great week and get a really good letter and awesome phone call. :-)
