DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Welcome to the Division Discussion for Divisions 255 and 256

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 got my phone call on Saturday and my first real letter yesterday! It was so wonderful to hear from my baby-girl!

Wo,finaly found the group.
I got two letters in the mail today and a call last saturday. He was only going to talk to me for twenty or thirty minutes and then call his dad but ended up stayingon the phone with me for 45 until they had him get off.

It was amazing.
I really hope I can scrounge up the money for a hotel so I can see the graduation. I'm excited.

good after noon everyone i got a call from my sailor yesterday div 256 he said he has pink eye and the flu sounded horrible. said he was haning in there but its hard when your sick. has any one else in div 256 got a call from their sailor being sick

Yes, my SR called yesterday, as well. She is DIV 256. She is recovering from a bad cold and pink eye, too. She's had a Sunday for a medical day and a Saturday for a medical day because of each. She sounded good, and upbeat. I think the two days gave her a chance to get much needed rest, and with the meds they gave her she is feeling much better.
