Hi Janet! My name is Pamela! I was looking for people with family in DIV 238 and came across your page! I'm happy i found some other people. My fiance is in the same DIV! I hope to hear from you soon!
All,
With the website being so screwy the last few days, I wanted to post this on everyone's page individually and hope that you will see it.
1. I've posted the June birthdays. Please get a card out to these recruits somewhere around their birthday. It would be really hard to be so young and away from your family for your birthday.
2. I've posted our only anniversary. Please remember David and Consuela on their FIRST wedding anniversary.
3. I've posted a list of about 30 FEMALE sailors who are graduating soon (6-6-08) and have received little or no mail since starting bootcamp. I think this is terribly sad. They need our support going into battlestations. If everyone would pick 5-10 names (please don't all start from the top) and send them a 99-cent card of encouragement, I think it would really pick up their spirits. They have to be feeling fairly unloved. You can sign your name or not...your choice. I personally will commit to sending 15 cards starting from the bottom of the list up. Pam, I'm counting on you to send 15 starting from the top down. Everybody else, just jump on in somewhere. We've got to get these girls some mail!
4. If I missed your recruit's birthday or anniversary, please let me know and I'll send out another post.
All this stuff can be found on my blog. You have to be my friend to see it (to protect the identity of specific recruits). I think I've sent friend requests to everyone on the list, but if I missed you, send me a request!
I tried to send this as a group message, but I don't think that function works very well. If you've gotten it twice, please forgive me.
Please ask your son/daughter to look around at mail call and notice who's not getting letters. Our PIR group would like to "adopt" these recruits to let them know someone is thinking about them.
We'll need full names (which might be a problem because they use only last names) and ship/division.
Please either PM me through the website or send me an email at mrsmcgee@aol.com with the names. Do not post them in a public forum.
I will post a private blog and let you all know if there's any recruit in need.

Janet,
I need Zach's last name so I can put him on the birthday list. I have everything else I need.
Please either PM me here or at home (mrsmcgee@aol.com). Don't just reply to this because it shouldn't be posted on a public forum
When I get the list compiled, I will post it as a blog visible only to my friends.

Janet,
hello, my future son-in-law AJ Rose is on Div 238 ship 11, maybe the boys know each other. I'm writing AJ asking if he knows any of the guys i find on this site. nice to meet you look forward to chatting with you. We are planning a navy wedding....we are so excited. tammy
I had to remove the post about Sonia's daughter needing some encouragement. Instead it is in a private blog (this is OK, per N4M admin). Please check it out and help her if you can.

Also, moms with kids who have birthdays during bootcamp, there is info for you in that blog, too. You have to be my "friend" to read it, so if we're not friends yet, either accept my invitation or send me one.
Hi Janet -
Finally....Now I don't feel so alone! Just kidding. It's impossible to feel alone when you're surronded by so many caring people (on this website). I received a letter from Josh on Saturday. I think I've read it 100 times. He seems to be doing ok.
I'm trying to create a database for our PIR group. I show Zach in ship 11, division 238. Is that right? Does he have any special occasions (birthday or something) during bootcamp? We are going to try to send cards for any recruit celebrating an event during bootcamp.

I don't think we've met. My name is Tina. My son James is graduating the same day as Zach. What ship/division is Zach. James is ship 6, div 933. He's with Pam's son and Bev J's daughter (both members of the PIR 7-4-08 group). I am in FNP school. What kind of practitioner are you?
Mostly I just wanted to say hi and hang in there. This is a great group of moms and together, we'll get through this.

You have to be my "friend" to view it, so it's private.
If you get a chance, please drop a birthday card in the mail. These recruits will be SO surprised.
