I think they are a push division? They were in P-Hold for awhile there waiting for more recruits, but will make it!! The last letter I have from my SR is dated February 8th and that was training day 3-3. 5-1 training day is this Thursday, February 21st. Is BS on 6-5 or the day after 6-5? 6-5 is March 6th.

I also got a call from my daughter in 110. She's been a little under the weather but is in very good spirits. Sounds like 110 is coming together as well.

YIPPEE!! Got a reward call from my SR daughter today about a 1/2 hour ago. She is in Division 109, the one I had asked for prayer for in getting along and working as a team. Well, they have earned 5 flags so far!! Hooray!! Today they earned for for their drills so they got to make phone calls home. It was great to see that 847 area code pop up on my phone after almost 3 weeks of silence! She sounded strong and I don't know, a little more subdued or mature? I could tell there was a difference. She is glad they are getting rewards, but the females still have somei issues with getting along with each other. The males work well together. On top of the phone call, I come home to letters from her in the mailbox!! So happy and smiling!! Love my baby!! Will see her soon in 2 weeks!! HOOYAH!!
By the way, my SR verified that today is Training Day 5-2!

Thanks for the update, Proud Dad!! I think that they are mixing up the order of things from what is listed on Craig's day to day schedule that he put up on NavyDep. No worries. Everything will happen when it's supposed to and our SRs are more than ready for it!! Just so excited to receive the "I'm a Sailor" calls next week and to hug our new Sailors on Friday!! God's Blessings and safe travels for everyone and I hope to see many at Sarge's Meet & Greet too~~
