Welcome to the Division Discussion for Divisions 015 and 016
These two divisions are brother divisions and will be training together from the beginning through BS21 their final test. Your SRs, soon to be SAILORS, are becoming friends, and some of them may be heading to A School together.
Get to know each other, your SRs are!
Please still use the Main Wall of the PIR Group to post questions, and concerns, we “veteran” moms don’t always get to into the discussion area as often as we would like.
Every single question that is asked is important Every single concern is genuine Every single member is important to us We don't want to accidentally overlook any of them or you.
Hang in there!!!

I got my call! It was so wonderful to hear his voice. He was SIQ when everyone got to make their calls. In fact, he was with "tidefan's' son. Isn't it funny that tidefan and I were both on here consoling each other because we didn't get a call and our boys were together. :) No worries both boys seem to happy and healthy now. :))))
We just talked with our SR a few minutes ago. He is doing great. He said that several guys stayed back for watch and to work on a DIV flag. He also said they were moving to the Hopper soon. Probably next week. Sounds like most of them are getting over the crud. Hopefully everyone who have missed calls get them.
Yea! Glad you got a call!!!
Just had to share...today is my birthday and my son remembered and called me! I was so happy! Glad others are getting calls too! He said he is getting over a cold too! He said they were a little stressed and tired, but things were coming together. Passed all the tests. They are all working hard so they can have a pin at PIR! Can't wait to go out!
I recieved a telephone call from my daughter on Friday. She mentioned something about the original form letter that was sent the first week of BC. She said there is a section on the form which list the people she wants there for graduation. Unfortunately, the letter when to my ex-husbands house... and he will not give me a copy of it. Can someone explain to me what information was in the letter and if there is a site where i have to register to go to graduation.......PLEASE HELP. Dont want to miss the special day.
Could she have sent it to someone else in the family? If she sent it to you yeah I would check with recruiter.
