Good Morning ladies,
I received a very short letter from my son yesterday, and I wanted to mention some possible bad news for our group. I won't go into details (don't have much anyway) because the RDC's read our posts, but my son said that they may only get 2 hrs of liberty after PIR because there was an incident and the Div is in trouble and is probably having liberty taken away. I am going to be so sad if this happens. I haven't been able to figure out getting to the airport yet to see my son off and give him his phone because Sarge/cab service is so expensive and I'm not sure about renting a car and having to drive to and from. I really hope we get more time with them.

Hi, I just received a letter from my recruit. He is Ship 03 Div 091 and no mention of this. What Div is your recruit with?

Hi Louielou,
My son mentioned the incident as well. Apparently the people involved have not owned up to it and are making the entire division suffer for their lack of accountability/ integrity. This is a big deal in the service. In the mean time they are all being IT'd twice a day and lost another call home. Hopefully those involved will fess up so the division doesn't get short changed on their liberty.
