That's OK! I just wish he would write at least one letter a week, even if it's only two lines. I send him a flyer newsletter every day and as PIR gets closer, I don't know if I'll be there bcs I have not heard a thing yet. I did reserve a room, but not a flight bcs i might not get a refund. I like to plan things out not at the last minute either

Its a great day! ( Div 937 ) Got a letter and he sounded much happier! He said that he passed all the tests and was looking forward to Battlestations and the "Gas Chamber". Hasn't said anything about getting pics or dress uniforms though, if anyone has heard from the div please let me know. First time has mentioned that he is sick so maybe everyone is on the mend up there. Can't believe only 14 more days till we see them. No mention of a call either so I don't know either way on that, but praying that I will or his GF Brit will. At this point I wish atleast one of us gets to talk to him, which is fine since we share all info with each other. Hope everyone gets "good" letters today like mine!

Hi Susan - I think that girls just write more than boys. Meagan says that Div 266 is doing very well.

Me Neither! No mail for me! But thanks to the MOM who wrote about div 266-at least I know where my son is at in his training! Thank you!

Yeah - last week my letter didn't come until Saturday even though it was mailed the same time as my daughter's (her came on Thursday). Keep looking in those mailboxes!

I was in the army and when you get that many females together there is bound to be ruffled feathers somewhere but everybody will pull together because it means they will all get out of there. Can't wait to get off work and see if my son's letter is more than 5 sentences long finally. I will share ladies so far all of you out there that didn't get one this week keep the faith maybe mail just slow and you will get it tomorrow or think maybe a phone call this weekend

Hi All - got a letter from Meagan today. She was feeling a whole lot better about things. She's very excited about graduation and says Div 266 is doing well. The letter was written 07/12 and she stated that they would be having live fire this week with the 9 ml pistol and M500 shotgun. She said they would have drill inspection Tuesday and Test 2 on Wednesday. She said next week her Div would do fire fighting and the gas chamber. Then the next thing would be battle stations. She was worried about battle stations because she said her division doesn't get along with each other very well and she knows they must work as a team. Hope they will pull it together because it determines whether or not they graduate. Only 14 more days!!!

Hey (937), I'm pleased to have received a letter. He got his temporary orders. I'm really confused by them the way he has worded it but everything seems to be going well. He Says that they should be able to make a call this week. But I don't know he said that last week too. lol

Ok division 265 MOMS. Got letter today. She passed 2nd. PFA (Personal Fitness Assessment) Man overboard drill was the best the instructor had seen in a long time.. She said the main hurdle was battle stations the week prior to graduation. Toughest part is staying awake for 48 hours. 1 more test, last PFA and a couple of inspections. If you have a daughter from Raleigh, N.C.they have become good friends.Weighs in next week but she sounds GREAT!!!!! and I am so happy.
