I'm just wondering who the N4Ms are who have SRs in this Division. Hopefully we will be getting mail/calls and can share the information.

13 MORE DAYS now and counting! WE CAN DO THIS! ^_^
I can`t wait to see the pictures :) still praying for them. DIVISION 215 will soon be graduating and we will all have new Navy Sailors. God Bless.
How is everyone doing? Our SR's are almost there!
Hi 1navymom & everyone! I can't believe we are almost there! This week's letter was so positive and pretty much feeling like their division was doing so well as a team. I'm so disappointed we haven't gotten a call, but if it means they are working harder -- I guess that will have to be.
I hear you on that last part about the calls NancyS I guess "No news is good news." We`re almost there my stomach is twisting with the excitement. ^_^
Hey, Is anyone planning on going to a meet & greet and which one? I am planning on Sarge's but there are quite a few others. Just wondering...
We're staying at the Ramada so we will probably go there first and then head over to Sarge's about 7. Is it silly to go to 2 of them? I sure would like to meet up with the folks I've met on this site.
Hello to all! I just found this site and I sure wish I had been on here from the beginning! I just read through all of your comments and it helps to know there are so many others in the same boat as me. I have been getting letters from my SR and it seems like he is going through the same things as everyone else.
My SR is the education PO and boy oh boy was he proud of his division for doing so well on exams and earning the scholastic flag first!
I miss him so much and can't wait to get to RTC next week. We are going to go to Sarge's meet and greet. I can't wait to meet other families that understand.
We're staying at the Ramada Inn so we are also going to that Meet and Greet -- at the beginning. I think it starts at 6. Hope to see you then.
