Yes, it certainly sounds like they did get it together. DIV 952 won the Captain Cup (all male) on Saturday. More bragging rights! Does anyone know how many other flags they have won; any chance of making the Hall of Fame?
Here is what my son's last letter said about the flags they have earned, made or recieved so far. The letter is dated Oct 27, so it is as up to date as I can get with snail mail lol
They have 2 divisional flages, one they are given and the Personal Flag they design themselves
Their ship's flag (USS Reuben James)
The Special flag that signifies what kind of division they are (staff)
The Compartment Readiness (STAR) Flag
The Drill flag
The Scholastic (S) Flag
And we now know that we can add the Captain's Cup Olympics Flag to the list as of yesterday :)
If you compare this list with the one in the Flags and Pennants page ellen502 posted for us the they are missing the Physical Fitness (A) Flag. I think if they can get that they have a have a chance at the other 3 that are listed: the Battle "E" Flag, the CNO Honor Division Flag, and the Hall of Fame Flag. I'm not sure if this is a complete list or not but it's all that I know at the moment. I will try ro remember to ask my son WHEN, trying to be very very positive here ;) he calls Tuesday.
I just posted a page about Flags and Pennants that can be earned by the divisions in BC. It is in the "pages" on the main page of this group. The "pages" are located on the right side of the main page under the member photos.
