Hello to SHIP 12 Div 331 & 332 Families. Has anyone heard from their SR this morning? We were hoping to get a call again like last Saturday.
Im so excited to talk to you, I did get a call on Saturday.
No call for me
Hello. No call for me either but my SR was having some trouble adjusting so he may not call even if given the chance. He didn't last Saturday even though he had the opportunity. At least, that's what he said in his letter. I hope everyone is having a good weekend.
No call this morning ----- I didn't really expect one but was hoping anyway. Hoping to get a letter next week :D Hang in there, Moms and Dads!
Sorry Ship 12/Div 331...I just realized this break-out group was here. I received a 3 min call from our son last night around 730. I did say it would be the last call for awhile. Hope you all received a call too!
no call for me but I did hear that others got one (:
I would like to know how long they have from PIR day sept. 6th to when they are off to A school
Hello Moms,
I just joined this site, and have been reading all of your posts for a few days. My SR secretly enlisted right after turning 18, and went to bc on 7/9 without saying good bye to friends and family. Based on that date, her PIR should be 9/6 unless she is held back. It's a long story, but she disowned her entire family and friends after quarreling with her parents over her 21 year old boyfriend. I have not received any calls, the box, the form letter or any mail. :( I am sure she sent all to her boyfriend. She should not have joined because of her medical history, and saying I am "worried sick" is an understatement! I am petrified and my heart is breaking! While her brothers, father, cousins, etc. are hurt and angry, I have been crying so much that I have actually gotten wrinkles. I just start crying no matter where I am. I have multiple nightmares every night and get little sleep, and my doctor had to prescribe additional blood pressure medication for me. I don't know what ship or division she is in, but may have narrowed it down to Ship 14 Div 335/336, Ship 12 Div 331/332, Ship 13 Div 333/334 or Ship 3 Div 337/338. I have been writing her, but don't know the address. I would be forever grateful if you could ask your SR if they know my daughter, and how she is handling bc. Not knowing what is happening to her is killing me. Her name is AlinaMari from Redlands, CA, pronounced AlinaMarie and she usually goes by Alina. Please don't share the personal details with your SR so they don't get back to my SR. She is, obviously already angry at her family.
Thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart!!!. I will keep your SRs in my prayers along with my own.
