Hello everyone. I noticed that there is no group for Ship 07 Div 35 so I decided to get one started. I hope other love ones will join soon.

Katie did you see any of Div 35 anywhere?

Yes. go to the facebook RTC page and they have two pics of 035 up.

Katie I looked at the photos on the RTC face book page but did not find a group Div-035 photo.

It was nice to talk with our SR it really made our Christmas. Won't be long now till PIR  

i didn't see any photos of my SR but I did get to talk to him. He sounds great a little tired but doing good. I am not flying in until Thursday morning for his graduation. I am staying at the Residence Inn. Is there any meet and greets on Thursday night? Plus does anyone know what we should wear to graduation? I hear many different stories.

 

We are staying at the Residence inn also. There is a Meet and Greet at the Sundance Saloon (Sarges) which we are going to try to attend. Also they have a meet & greet at the Ramada. Hope to see you there.

We will also be attending the Meet and Greet at the Sundance Saloon.

Hello everyone

Glad to be back home and what a weekend that was. I must say my SR was not very talkative. HE said he had so many stories to tell but now that he sees us he has forgotten them...lol I think what he needed most is some good rest so he slept for about 2 hours. My husband made his favorite meal which is beef stroganoff and then he wanted pizza so we had pizza delivered from Mike's pizza. It was very very sad to bring him back but we are just so grateful that we had teh chance to see him.

I am booked at the Residence Inn for PIR in a 2 br suite. We will arrive late Thurday night. Hope to meet up with you guys then.

Does anyone think we're going to be getting anymore letters?

Katie, I haven't received a letter since last Thursday (12/22). I will hope for one more but I am not sending out any more mail after Friday. We are almost there!

I know! I'm stopping that day too!

It seems that we all begun this journey yesterday! Time has flown by and yet some days, time stood still. I will you all in 9 days. Safe travels everyone :)

Katie, When I saw my son on Sunday, he said that RDC has requested we stop sending letters as of that day.  There is a higher chance of the letters not making it to the SRs if sent this week or next.
