Yeah! Finally found everyone. :) With the RTC site down for the week, I have felt out of touch. My daughter is in 02/924. Still waiting on a phone call. RTC called yesterday saying that she was on "ship deck" duty and would be calling in a few days. Not sure if that means "watch"??? I'll have to read all the previous posts to see if others have heard from their SR's. Letter from her sounds encouraging though. :)

Hope you get your call soon. Nothing better than to hear their voice on the other end saying 'Mom, it's me'. Let us know what you learn when you finally connect.

I didn't get a letter yesterday, but I DID get a phone call!!!!! I could barely hold back the tears as I heard his voice! He says that he is doing well and that he has made a lot of great people. He also said that IT was definitely the most difficult thing he has had to do thus far. Thank you, Lord, for watching over all of them!

So glad to hear it! What is your son doing in DIV 924, musical instrument, flags, etc.? Asking because my son is on the quads, thought he might know your son.

Daniel hasn't told me that he is in this group.(Supposed to be a surprise but how could I not figure it out) My guess is that he is playing the snare drum. That's what he played in marching band and indoor drum line. He also plays marimba, but I am sure they don't have that there. You can ask Matt if he knows Daniel M from Amherst, Ohio.

I'll ask Matt. He said there were some really talented guys on the snare drums. Matt also went to Ohio State and they may have made the 'Ohio' connection.

Would anyone care to shed some light on how the division is doing? Especially the females. My daughter was on watch Friday night and was not able to call home. We were told we would hear from her in a few days. Well, in my book, a few days are up. lol I'm thinking it's unlikely she will be calling home. No news is good news, I know. But curiosity is killing me. I will be running to the mailbox tomorrow in hopes of a letter. But in the meantime, any thing worth sharing in detail from the calls you received? Thank you so much!!

Can't give you the 'female' perspective as I have a son but he did say that their division is awesome and really working well together. They had earned an Academic flag when we last spoke and he said that he has met a lot of nice people, both men and women.
I got the sense that DIV 924 is great and am sure that your daughter is doing well. Sad to hear that you didn't get the call as she was on duty. I suspect that we will all experience some of that along the way. Hoping that letters are coming your way. Hard to believe that we or should I say they (although it feels like we're in this too) are half way through BC. Can't wait til 4/27.

I did get letters last week and again yesterday and a call Friday. She did feel that the group was doing well and the girls where getting along. She met a lot of nice people. She will be carrying a flag for the division (has been being a "stick without a flag" till now-some sort of flag they earned.

Hi Tias Mom-my daughter is Christina. She seems to feel everything is going pretty well. She did colorguard in high school and is used to flipping her flag to music so she is finding Navy flags a bit boring! I say they are wasting some fine talent! She did say they get a fair amount of IT because they are a bit chatty!
