For the moms of the girls in this division (or fathers/boyfriends/brothers) my mom got a letter from my daughter today and she told her it was like having 40 sisters. She told her they got along good.

We have a facebook group that is a little more active, if anyone is interested in joining over there. Just hit me up in my inbox. I think I saw you on a FB page this morning; unless there is someone else from Granger in this division.

Got a letter today from my girl. Sounds like things are going well. She didn't date the letter, but it appears it was written this past Sun. She did talk about the upcomming week as being "hell week". From the sounds of it our SRs are going to be very busy. I'm happy to say my SR has not really said anything negitive yet. I'm hoping that is how she really feels about it and is not just not telling me. We had some very long talks prior to her leaving about bootcamp and all the feelings that go along with it. Of course my navy boot camp was 25 years ago and from what I can see on-line it was nothing like it is now. But all in all I would think the feelings and emotions aren't going to change. She has only got to call home once and I didn't get to talk with her. Her Dad did. I'm hoping for a call this weekend. I also told here about this web site, so maybe more Moms will join
