Ship 11 Div 134 PIR 4/27/12
I just got the letter late yesterday. My son arrived at GL on 3/1. I thought we might be pushing it to make the 4/27 date, but happily surprised. Got a GREAT note on the back of the letter... Has he changed this much already that he seems to really miss us? Wow!
Hoping to connect with other 11/134 moms. Let me know. :D Hang in there! We're gonna make it, just like our kids! :D

Happy Friday!!! :D I actually have a couple minutes at my computer this morning instead of having to read our discussion on my phone! Cool, huh? I'm choosing to be positive. We will leave very early on Thursday for our 14 hour drive. So, here's my question... okay... questions.... which may or may not have already been mentioned but I missed it... Where is everybody staying? Are you planning to attend any of the Meet and Greets? I'd like to meet as many of you as possible, but don't know how practical that is. I'm SO EXCITED!!!! 6 DAYS and counting!!! I can't wait!

Hi Corinne, yes Ship 11 Division 133 and 134 should be graduating and have their PIR day is the 27th of this month. I can not say who in these two divisions will be graduating, but here on N4M we are hoping all our SR will come out fine!!!! We are always praying:) We are all still on hold for that until they complete battle stations which takes placed on the 24th and 25th of this month. If all go's right you should receive a call from your SR after 2:00 PM on the 25th. Go over this site and Navy Training Command site for alot of great information.
A message from diannep to all members of PIR 4/27/2012TG 24 — 9 Divisions (127–134 & 924) on Navy For Moms!
BattleStations for 04/27 revised:
Th/F 4/19-4/20 127-130
M/T 4/23-4/24 924/131/132
T/W 4/24-4/25 133/134
We are pretty sure this is correct. Calls will come in on the afternoon that they finish (overnight drill). Please contact Lala with any questions since I will be out of town and off the computer until Sunday night. diannep -
