Division T-Shirts - more info please
I've been hearing some talk about Division T-shirts. Could someone please fill me in on the details of this? Is it something I can purchase for my SR? If so, how? Thanks in advance.

From what I understand the SR's get the opportunity to order a shirt, but you can order more for family and friends

Pictures are usually taken week 4, when you send a letter to your SR have them order the photo's, there is a package that includes the "Keel" Yearbook, I have heard it cost's between $140-$170 for the largest package, and the DVD is like $29.99. If your SR doesn't order pictures you then have the opportunity to do so, read below, I copied and pasted that from the RTC website....
RECRUIT INDIVIDUAL/DIVISION PHOTOS & DVD OF PIR/GRADUATION & YEARBOOK: If your recruit has not ordered any of these, you may contact the Navy Exchange Photos Lab after the graduation date to order at 847-578-6205.
The photo lab only keeps individual photos and yearbooks (if available) for about a year and division photos back about 10 years. Older items are are not available.

We ordered our shirts a few weeks ago and got them today. They are great! They are top secret so even more fun :) I had told my son to order the pictures and one shirt for him and I let him know that I had ordered the ones for us.

You will enter their division and PIR date. You can order as many as you want, but any you order will come to you the week before graduation ( if you order black ) The ones your SR orders they will pick up with their pictures. My son ordered a sweatshirt and T-shirt and I ordered us 3 T's that we got at our house to wear on plane. Once on their site, check out their sister site too. I ordered a couple things off of there as well!
I told my son what I had ordered during a phone call he was able to make, and I told him to order the pictures package A and get those paid for so we would have them ready to pick up and take with us after PIR. He knew what we got and then ordered whatever else he wanted for himself or friends. -
