Hi Carol, My daughter just graduated this morning and what an incredible experience. You are going to love it. Her battle stations were Wednesday night until yesterday morning and we were already in Chicago when we got her call. She was exhausted because they finished battle stations in the morning and then had 3-1/2 hours of graduation practice. I didn't like that they were last division before graduation but that's the way it worked out. But it was all worth it. I started crying the minute I spotted her. Can't wait to hear about your experience.

Hi, I'm in the Navy. After battle stations they go straight to breakfast then get their phone call that afternoon.

They would be set back in another division to run battle stations again.
You would still see him/her over that PIR weekend unless he/she is a grad and go, then your time is more limited.
