Greetings! Our daughter Pat is a member of Div 381. Looking forward to interacting with you and meeting you at PIR!

Hello.  My daughter is Div 382 :)

Hello! I just received a call from my daughter who is in 381. She needed some information, and she seems to be doing well. I learned that 381 and 382 are BOTH integrated Divisions (men and women). For Hygiene and Sleep, the women of 381 and 382 are together. Same for the men.

Jackandmarie....I would give ANYTHING to get a phone call from my daughter.  I'm glad to know your daughter is doing well though :)  Thanks for the info!

Patty told me that they only just today started their training (I'm assuming both 381 and 382). Prior days had all been "P" days. Lots of yelling :)...but she said things seem manageable for everyone.

 

Just a little update.  I got a call from her Saturday morning.  She told me she had been receiving her mail from me.  She arrived there 8-13, I started mailing 8-19 because the recruiter gave me her address.  She was crying and homesick but she said it wasn't that bad, except there are several girls that just DON'T listen to what they are told and it gets them all in trouble.  She said they tell you EXACTLY what to do and she didn't get how some people just couldn't listen!!!  It was nice to hear from her and know that she is surviving and she is ok, but really, it didn't make me feel better.  :(

My daughter Patty told me that there are a "bunch of alpha females" who like to strut their stuff. Hopefully they will learn to function more as a team as time goes on!

We got a call from our daughter div 382 Saturday also. She told us that 382 doesn't get yelled at very much however 381 does. We were super happy to get a call this early from her. We couldn't be happier for her, but we think we may be more sick for her than she is for us. She was sad that she wasn't getting mail yet I wish her recruiter would have told us she could get her address. Well her first mail call should bombard her with a ton of mail, we have been writing and saving letters every day shes been in BC. 

Hi, my son is Div 382.  I received the form letter but nothing  from him yet.  I hope he calls.

My son is division 382 and he called me on Saturday morning I was very surprised to get a phone call from him so soon.  He is home sick but said it wasn't to bad.  He said the peanut butter shot was very painful.  It was very nice to hear from him and know that he is okay.  

Peanut Butter Shot?  Fill me in on what that is!!!  lol

 Antibiotic, we have been told....very thick, given in the hip, they must roll around on their hip to disperse it.  OUCH!
