Hi ladies, my son is in div 065 but I'm really enjoying reading through this div 066 thread. Your div has more members & lots more chatter :) My son's been gone a month today and still no phone call. Now I'm wondering if he can't remember our phone numbers because it's been years since he had to actually dial a number. My husband keeps telling me that no news is good news. If I find out he called a friend instead of me then he's toast! lol At least he sounded good in the letter we received.

I made the same comment before I recieved my first letter. "If she wrote the boyfriend, there is gonna be a problem" But the call will come I haven't recieved one yet,but Have an idea why. Things happen, my grandson, said it can be as simple as time running out before a phone is available, or even a faulty phone card. Don't worry our calls will come.And he will remember the number, They always remember the home phone. I remember mine and that is a long time ago.LOL

Good morning ladies! Another beautifully sunny day in Chicago! Our recruits have been pretty lucky this far with the weather. So far this winter we've had less than 1/2" of snow--a record since they've been keeping track. But percipitation is in the forcast for later this week and this year I'm down one snow shoveler ;).

Hey Gals -
Just got a letter from my recruit and wanted to share some of what he wrote;
"I am in an integrated division and my RDCs are intent on on making 066 the first integrated division to reach Hall of Fame status. I have 3 RDCs and I really like them. They all make us feel pride in our choice to join and push us to our limits so we can be the best recruits possible...."
I am praying that they are able to reach that Hall of Fame goal! What an accomplishment that would be. I know our boys and girls can do it!
Enjoy your day-
Hope
