Hello Everyone! I'm new here. My son graudates 8/30/13. He's ship 13 Div 321. I'm so excited I could bust!! We are traveling to Chicage a couple days in advance because we used to live there and have friends we want to see. I just noticed the Sarge's meet and greet. I wish we could attend but we already made plans for that night. I understand he has shortcuts on getting to PIR that will save time. Does anyone happen to know what those shortcuts are? We are having to drop my grandaughter off at a daycare center because we are one ticket short. They open at 6:30 am but it's in South Barrington. I really, really don't want to be late and miss the whole thing! My son would strangle us big time if we did!! Any suggestions out there? Thank you all!

That was a nice event. I was not sure how close Divisions 321 and 322 were, but it was interesting they shared the same RDC Chief, and reportedly did a lot of training together. It sounds like in the future there may be more RDCs per Division as the current RDC workload seems superhuman. Our Sailor was in a good mood and the work they all put into the training was obvious. "Anything is possible" was our best quote today. It sounds like he will have a few buddies to go to A School with which will be nice.
