Welcome to the Division Discussion for Divisions 275 and 276
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!!!

Hi Hopper Family.
My daughter is in 275 and will be heading to Florida for A school.
Hi Hopper Moms! My SR is in Div 275 and heading to Pensacola for A school, also. There are new pics on the US Navy Recruit Training Commands FB. I don't see 275 but I think there are some of 276. If anyone sees 275, please post it! Can't wait for 8/21!

Hi, my Sister Hopper Moms! Question....is anyone making a centerpiece for DIV 276 for the Meet & Greet? I read somewhere that there is a limit of 2 for each Division, and wanted to ask before I went shopping tomorrow! Thanks in advance ya'll! Can't WAIT to meet everyone!
https://www.facebook.com/groups/40865546374/ This is a closed group, so you have to request permission, then ask to join 8/21/15.
I have a question.... my SR is going to A school in Pcola - will he need a laptop for school and homework or will there be computers there for him to use? He has asked for one, but to be honest, I am not so sure about it. I know the school is intensive and has a high failure rate and I am afraid that a laptop will be more of a distraction. any advice is appreciated
Hey ya'll! Haven't been able to get on here in awhile....how is everyone doing? PIR is coming fast! Is everyone as excited as I am?..of course you are! We get to hug our Sailors!
