Welcome to the Division Discussion for Divisions 183 and 184
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!!!

Just got this. Sorry so late in responding. We fly in late Thursday night so we'll miss the M & G. So bummed! I got a letter today that said things are going well. Only 15 more days now. So excited for our boys! :)
Lovely day All and sorry I haven't blogged in awhile,
My daughter is in div 183 also. got 2 calls from her each lasted over 30 minutes...YES! amazing...from what I gathered everyone is doing well except for a few got colds and flu but nothing to be worried about. i cant believe that we are 24 days, only 3 Thursdays left..lol. From what I've gathered, bootcamp is intense and it really requires a lot of team effort. But she said that getting letters is heaven to them so please WRITE as many times as we can. pls. pls. pls :-)
I'm so excited to find out the Airmen came to speak to them and now are sponsoring our division (183) and my daughter selected to help design the division's flag. She said that they're theme name is "The Avengers" and she gets to help design & write on the flag. Fly, Sail and Avenge..so proud of her (I guess her artistic talent is paying off). I'm a proud mama :-) have a great day all!
Question: Is there a meet and greet at the Navy lodge? we will arrive the day before and I have no idea on what to expect there? Thanks :-)
Hello All!! Thinking about everyone and with what went on in Boston yesterday it makes us all so proud of our kids right now!! And miss them and I cannot wait to give my son a big hug!!! I hope to meet some of you in a few weeks!
I will be there as I believe he hosts at the Radisson.

Mom here with concerns, any one on Hopper that might be able to ask how female recruit SR H is doing, I would greatly appreciate it. Not getting much information, what I am getting doesn't make a lot of sense. Thank you, in advance.
