Welcome to the discussion group for divisions 325 & 326. 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!!!

No call here.  Must state that I'm a little disappointed.

My son called his gf tonite. Even though I expected it and told him it would be ok, I'm feeling a little let down..Hope you all get your calls soon.

Got a call tonight from my son. He sounds good. We were only able to talk for a minute. His dad got a quick call too. Great to hear his voice :)  Jeanette, I was totally shocked to get a call as I told my son the same thing you did, but he wasn't able to reach his gf as she was still in class at college. I lucked out this time...

My son did call on Tuesday 9/4, but called his gf because my phone was temporally disconnected... :( I hope he gets another chance to call again so I can hear his voice. but I'm not holding my breath, that way if it happens it will be great nd if it doesn't it's ok.

Got a letter this weekend...Said Pink Eye is making it's way thru 326.  Also said that they lost 2 of their phone calls because some of the SR's don't know how to listen.  They have had some Intensive Training as well...I hope they are through the worst of the problem behavior now and are focusing on teamwork..Only 25 days!  Can't wait.

Is the lost phone privilege also affecting 325 too?

That would be bad if 325 lost phone access.  But I am FAR more concerned that 325 doesn't get the pink eye that is going around 326.....

My son's girlfriend received a letter today and the reason our SR couldn't call was because he had two wisdom teeth removed and they would let them go make the calls for obvious reasons.  Hopefully we will hear from them this week.

Sorry to hear about the pink eye that is nasty and very contagious.

Pink eye, thats all they need. Your right 25 days will be here before we know it. Glad you got a letter.

Rec'd one dated 9/2 on Sat.  His GF received hers yesterday.  Going to try to send you a private message Dena.

 

My letter came Tuesday 9/11 dated for the 9/2, and my younger daughter got hers yesterday dated 8/30... I think mail got delayed because of the holiday. Praying you get yours soon.

I recieved 2 letters today.  One was dated 9/2 and the other was dated 9/9.  He spoke about some people having pink eye and alot of people were coughing.  He had an ear infection, but was ok now.  He also talked about losing 2 phone calls because they were told that they were a disrespectul division, lol, poor guy, and that they have done alot of intensive training because nobody will stop talking. (His words.)  Other than that, he says that today, 9/13, starts week 4 "Hell Week".  He was told that 10-20 people from his 85 member division will not pass all of the inspections.  So now I will worry until this week is over. Right after this week, they do the gas chamber and then the next week is battlestations.  After that, he says, it will be a piece of cake :)
