Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 321 & 322. These two divisions are brother divisions and will be training together from the beginning through BS21 their final test. Your SRs, soon to be SAILORS, are becoming friends, and some of them may be heading to A School together.
Get to know each other, your SRs are!
Please still use the main wall to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion groups as often as we would like.
Every single question that is asked is important
Every single concern is genuine
Every single member is important to us
We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.
Hang in there!!!

I bet you that she will write! My daughter called me Mommy! She hasn't called me that in a looooong time!
Thanks for all your the info Ellen .You are awesome!!!!!!!
I just was hoping that she wasn't one of them:) hahaha
Well we got word yesterday that my brother is being Medically Discharged. He has a bad knee and apparently its worse then we thought. He was separated from his unit and is place with the others being sent home. He'll be here in 10-20 business days (sounds like a UPS package). I'm glad he'll be home but he has to re-think his whole game plan. He is pretty upset. He gets to call every day and get on the internet til he leaves. He said that his unit Ship 12 Div 321 gets to make a phone call today. KEEP YOUR PHONE CLOSE! He said he thinks its the only call they will get to make. He's going to call me today so any other information I'll post on here ASAP. Good luck to all your soldiers!
I'm so sorry to hear that .How is your brother handling this? Why do they hold them for so long? Tell him we wish him all the best !!!!! Did he mention how the division is doing as a whole. I'm sorry to ask about the division, it just seems you are now my lifeline to my son. Thanks so much Navysister. Hang in there.
He's being very mature about the situation. He's really upset but now showing it. I dont know why they hold them so long but I wish they'd just send him home. He hasnt told him but I'll definitly as him when I talk to him and let yall know.
Big bummer! Poor guy! Hope his knee heals up fast! Thanks for the update about the phone call! I am at work and just told everyone that my cell phone will be on ALL DAY regardless of the policy! There is no way I am going to miss this phone call!
He had surgery on it a few years ago so its not really something that can heal :( He grew to fast and his knees took a toll. I hope you get your phone call.
Me too! Thanks for keeping us posted!
No call and it is almost 1000 there:(
