My letter says that this past week was Hell Week and that they had a busy week with 3 inspections, PFA, Marlinspike and a trial run of of small arms assessment. They have earned four flags and have two more possible this week for firearms and seamanship. Keeping my fingers crossed for them! Revelry was at 4:30 each day during Hell Week, so we had some pretty tired SRs.
He also said he had a 2 am. watch shift where he had to walk around the barracks and listen to the guys snore and talk in their sleep for two hours, lol! He had only 4 hours of sleep that day because after watch shift was over, revelry was 30 minutes later so he just stayed awake and hit the rack that night at 10pm. zzzzzzz....
They did marching drills for 7 hours straight one day but he says they learned a lot about marching as a unit
Overall, it seems like they are doing well and are on track for a good two weeks of team work and prepping for Battlestations.
It's almost over ladies! We have so got this under wraps!!!
Two weeks from today we will have already hugged their necks multiple times by now!

Do you know how they can "earn" calls? I am going crazy, it'll be 3 weeks tomorrow since I have heard her voice!

At this point in time, I don't know that they can earn calls. This is crunch time for them.

It is posted on the RTC FB page. The person who won the Tuesday Trivia last week has an SR in this division, so this is the picture of that division.

My son is in this group but not pictured:(. Would they let me know if he was sick or something ?

It could be for a number of reasons, all of which would not be anything serious, watch, errand running etc. Not to worry.
