I see PunkIdoll that your son is in the same ship and div as my son. I looked at some pics on here and I look and look for my son. I would give a tooth just to see his face and hug him right now. So miss him and him telling us that he is fine.

I haven't received any letters at all from my son and neither has his fiance. Was wondering if anyone else in Div. 189 had received any letters or phone calls?

I have gotten phone calls from my son but not any letters yet. They can only mail out letters once a week and last week they didnt get picked up.

My son is Ship 12 div 189 and I have not received any letters from him. Phone calls yes on Saturday afternoon. He graduates May 17. does your son? He called on Saturday and thank goodness my daughter in law was visiting us because we all chatted with him! Good luck DsMomma! I understand they are really busy and I know my boy is not into writing letters and stuff. So I write him everyday. Hang in there.

My Son Is Ship 12 Div 189 PIR 5/17 He Called his Fiance This Evening And We Both Received Several Letters Today. He Said They Usually Get To Call When They Go To The NEX On Saturday 5Pm Chicago Time. He Sounded Really Good, He's Been Sick With A Bad Cold ThE Whole Time, But He Really Is Enjoying BC. He Is Very Proud To Be A Section Leader And Says His Group Consists Of 15 Guys Plus Him, And He Thinks The World Of Them. He Says They Are Quiet And respectful And They Really Take Care Of Each Other. Us Moms Should Be so Proud Of Those Great Men We Have Raised!

Just got a call from my daughter SHIP 12 DIV 190 She said other than possible "bravo calls" This would be the last one until Battlestations. She sounded great! Feeling better .... she was SIQ for one day due to upper respiratory infection. She says that 4 girls in the div have been sent home so far.
