I never got my form letter and it is because she was SIQ the day they mailed him. Your SR just needs to confirm the names on the list and le

You're definitely not alone. Just received our first 3 letters from our SR today. No PIR form. Let's just say that Div 930 is a tad behind, however the intent is that they're still graduating June 7th. So let the planning commence!

We booked our flight!

So I hear that because our SRs are performing we get special seating at the PIR?

I know that all divisions have a section for that division (I think seated in front of them). Taylor did tell me that we have a secton to sit in. I am not sure if it is on the floor or upper level. I would expect we will need to be a little more spread out with them performing and such. I will ask the question in the 900's division on FB; it has a LOT of activity. I have read that upper level is better for watching the performance (but I am sure there will be others that would disagree...everyone has their own opininon). Of course my SR will be a guard, greeter/seating so there is no telling where she will be. I am going to post request on the 900's FB page to look for her as a guard, etc during the PIR's for 928 and 929; maybe someone can catch a photo of her.

Why, thank ya! I don't have FB....it's part of my contract...must be so that I won't post 'duckface' pics and embarrass the company! I think Ashton does....what's the name of the Facebook Page and I'll ask her to join it so we can see.

Well PIR letter finally arrived today.....no personal note inside...no smiley faces, no hearts. However, our SR used my married name (for which I have no idea how he came up with it) instead of my maiden name which I've used for all of my life (save 7 years) I'm hoping I can catch him so he can get it changed or I'll be standing outside the gate during PIR. I have no identification that matches that name....so it's going to be interesting.

Another Friday has come and gone....another Friday closer to our own PIR...wishing all my Navy4Moms a Happy Mother's Day...whether our SR's are near or far, I'm sure they're all thinking of you this Sunday.

I am sorry to hear that so many of you are not getting form letters or calls from your SR in ship 02 div. 930 :o(
We got the box the first week with a packet of papers in it. The form letter came a few days later.
On week two, we started getting letters and our son has called 4 times now with really great things to say about his division. We continue to get letters every week.
It is true that they are very busy with the extra duties they have to get ready for performing in two PIR's before they perform in their own.
Please hang in there...I am sure there are reasons for the delays, but wanted to encourage you that this division is doing well :o)
