Welcome to the Division Discussion for Divisions 037 and 038
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 finally got 3 letters from my SR! He said that their division is doing really good! I can tell big difference in him already, just from his letters!! He told me that he has earned 2 ribbons so far, to wear at PIR! One of the ribbons was for getting Sharpshooter, during Live Fire!! Not sure what he earned the other ribbon for, he forgot to tell me! I am so proud of him!! Lori, my son said the same thing, Week 6-1 starts tomorrow!!
