@Shawn's mom- I received aletter last Monday without much infomration about what they are doing there. Our other son received a letter last Wednesday and said that there were just a lot of questions about what's going on in our lives and not much info about what our SR is doing. I am hoping and praying for a letter in the mailbox when i get home today.

Hello! I just got off the phone with my son. He was calling to confirm who would be attending PIR. He didn't have a date for Battlestations yet. He said this is week 5 for them and that most likely it would be in week seven, but no more detail than that. I was hoping for a letter and got a phone call.
@Shawn's mom- He said he knows your son and that he is doing well too. -

LOL!!! Travis Mom, we heard from Shawn today too. I can't believe how lucky; I was with my husband at a Dr apt this morning when Shawn called his cell phone so I got to talk to him too. He was so pleased, he passed his run time!! He also was looking for the final info for PIR, he sounded so much better than he did at the last call when he was so worried. He laughed when he told me your son asked "hey is your first name Shawn? Yeah... why? You should write your Mom!" LOL!!! He said you still have your way of finding me!! I am booking tickets now and am looking forward to meeting you at meet and greet! :-)

That's awesome!! So glad you got to speak to him!! Love it, love it, love it!!! We are still planning to be at Sarge's meet & greet, but Travis' childhood friend is arriving at 5:30 into Midway and we will be waiting for him before we head up to the meet and greet. I'm not sure how long it will take us to get the luggae and rental car and then drive up. I hope we don't miss it. Diannep has the Battlestation date for our division. You can friend her and she will message it to you.

I'm so excited to be on here! I'm not a mom but a wife. My sailor is in Ship 7 Div-170! I got a call from him today and he told me that they would be calling sometime this weekend which I'm excited about! I had no idea their was a group on the site for his division. I can't wait till his graduation! My sailor normally doesn't mention what their day to day is because it's nothing new. They go to class and exercise. He talks to me about his shots and what food they serve a lot. He also said that most everyone in his division is sick. :( He said everyone is scared to go to Medical because everyone he knows of thats been sent there has been sent home. I can't wait to get to know more about you guys! Who is all going to make it to their graduation?

Hi a1beachbug! I'm not a mom either, but a girlfriend. My boyfriend speaks of a Darby too! I'm trying to remember whether or not he spoke of your husband, but he's said the same thing - he's been sick since they started because anyone who's gotten sick would get everyone else sick. Hope your Gregory is doing well! :)
They're so close to graduating!

Got a phone call yesterday and today both were unexpected. Im a wife also! Can not wait for PIR. He was sick the first time they got calls but sounded better this time. Is it hard for you guys to hear them on the phone. My ear hurt after the call bc i was pushing the phone into it trying to hear him better. He said its hard for him to hear on their phones as well :(...

Yeah, it was pretty hard to hear him too :( It was just great to hear his voice, regardless though! They've been working Ship7Div170 pretty hard, considering it seems like many of the other divisions have received more phone calls than us, so it was definitely great to hear from him!
How is your SR doing, agg31310? :)

Very true i love getting to talk to him! He is good, said he got shots today i asked him what they were and he had no idea lol. Which does not surprise he doesnt really question things like i would. Ready for graduation. He said they are getting to send their letters out more often now(they collected letters yesterday so some ppl might be getting some this weekend).
Where are ya'lls SR going for A school?
