Welcome to the discussion group for division 901.
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 of the PIR Group to post questions and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion area 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!!!

it's not been good-- he sent one letter to his girlfriend and that's been it. : (
To my friends in 901/ 2 I finally got a call from my son. He called three people today Grandma, home to his 18yr. old brother who he very close to, and myself and we got to talk for a long time. He said he misses his friends in 901. I want thank all of the men who stuck by my son while he was in this division they know who they are. He is doing great!! He has passed all his tests, he is able to write now and said he will be able to receive mail again soon any day now...He said that he has a renewed sense of strength now. He says that a lot of the SR's in his new division do not like him but that he is trying to keep to himself and is focused on 11/30 and seeing his family and his girl. Thank you all for your support and prayers. I hope all of your SR's are well. Navy hugs...
Did 901 do Battlestations on Tues night? Any calls yesterday?
Dad 4 SR: I think that this division has defected to FB....sigh....that is usually the reason that they go "strangely quiet." Sad....as they miss info on here and we miss feedback from them.....
I am not a part of their facebook group and from what I have heard it is not a group that many people are happy about. A lot of people have actually left that group. But I did read on the 900 divisions facebook group (which is a great group) that all 901 division are now Sailors :) So that is great news. Dad 4 SR, I hope you get a call today with good news. Maybe your Sailor had watch when the calls were made.
Thank you. I'm afraid my son was moved out of this division a number of weeks back-- but he likes his new division so we're hoping it's a plus.
