Hey ladies and gentlemen. :) Here is a peek at your SRs.

Is there any way to get a bigger copy of this picture?

I spoke to my son on Sunday and he said that they were going to start battle stations(don't know what that is)and he might not be able to call for 2-3 weeks...I am trying to find him in the picture but can't seem to. I miss him terribly. I am waiting for his second letter now.

 

Ellen0502 this is the wrong division. I posted the link to the picture of div 952 but can't get it big like this

I haven't had a chance to speak to my son yet. Last Sunday I saw a voice mail on my phone but phone never rang. My son left a short 2 second message that he loves me. I haven't received a letter yet either. I can't find him in the picture either. I miss my baby so much.

I couldn't agree more that that is an awesome bunch of future sailors! Can we share that on our FB? Or is that a big no no?

I'm guessing we can share it on our FB page since some of the boys are tagged in the picture. If they can tag them we can share it right? Hope so since I already did.

steviesmama it took me about an hour and blowing the pic up to find my SR! They al look alike with their hair cuts! I hope you get a call this weekend :-)
Div 952 is calling! Just got a 20 minutes call from my SR! He said that was the last call until BS-21. He sounded good. It is so good to hear his voice! I can't wait until 11/8!

It looks like I might be able to go to the graduation! Just because I need to save money,  where is the most affordable hotel to stay at? 

steviesmama: I'm not sure what the most affordable hotel to stay at would be you may have to call a few and inquire about their rates. Make sure you specifically ask for the NAVY GRADUATION RATE it makes a big difference at some of them. Hope that helps you.

My SR also caked Sunday as well. Said he would not call next week. What are battle stations?
