DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

Welcome to the Division Discussion for divisions 077 and 078.

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 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!!!

Thank you for setting these divisions up.

right I really need this. I am going through a lot right now. I don't know if I will be able to make it to the graduation.

My daughter is in this division. This is my first time on this website. I have been looking for information about her division. Have you been able to find any more? Thanks!

My daughter is in this division too. I'm so proud of them!

This is an all girl division. My daughter is in this division and I haven't heard too many great things except that they rec'd the academic flag!  I hope this division learns that they need to pull together and unite as a team. 

Only three of us? Hope others join us.
I know right? Lots for Ship 12 but not many for 14. Any of you in the FB PIR 2-1-2013 page? Lots of people there also. Hopefully we'll hear from them this coming week ! As someone said, we only have 6 Fridays to go! We can do it!
I think that more of us are on the home page, because we see more info there then on each sjip following
the time is going by slowely for us, but it must be flying by for our SRs. Everyone have a good New Year.
Did you guys get calls today also?
Jodenne - so how was your call? I was so glad to hear from my son finally. He sounded good, actually I think he loves it. I think he was the verge of tears when we first answered the phone but got over it when we started to talk. He said they had PT on Christmas day because they ( the division) had said they wouldn't eat sweets but then some had a piece of pie on Cmas and the RTC came in and found them eating it so they had to work it off. My son didn't seem mad about it he just was telling me about it. He also said that they have a few recruits that don't keep quiet when they should and it gets them into trouble. There was so much I wanted to ask him about but we didn't get to it. I heard someone yelling at him and others we he said he had to go. Did your SR give you any idea when they might get to call again?

I read on one of these groups somewhere that Ship 14/077 received the Academic Flag.  Now I can't find the page that I saw it. Has anyone else heard this?  Are there certain flags that each division are competing to earn?  Or do all divisions have the chance to earn these milestones?  Or... does anyone know where I might read more information on these flags?  Thanks... I feel really stupid asking such a broad question.
