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 301 and 302

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!!!

Seen lots of Pics of Divisions 301 and 302 on the RTC page  : )

Say my girl! I cried so hard! In face I think I screamed! I didn't get a phone call last week because she was on bed rest they pulled 6 wisdom teeth...poor thing!
Auto correct! I meant saw my girl, and in fact!
Maybe I will get the call today!
Hi all! Hope everyone had a good weekend and we are one more week closer to PIR! Was blessed with a phone call from my SR yesterday and she is doing well! She has formed some Amazing bonds with her brothers and sisters in 301 & 302! There is one SR in particular that has become her life line there! She is her bunk mate and would love for me to reach out to her parents! I personally would like to thank them for doing a wonderful job raising an inspirational daughter! All of our children are really something special! I tried to reach out on Facebook but haven't had any luck! I really hope to meet them at some point! Thank you all for all the support!

My Daughter is in Ship 12 Division 302 my daughter has also become very close with her bunk mate not sure if that might be your daughter either way I'm very thankful for whoever's family it is my PIR has the last name of B*(PERSEC and N4M Guidelines).

*(Last name removed)

It will be helpful if you use the SR's initials. Oftentimes SR and parents have different last names.
How do I get to the Facebook page?
Has anyone had any luck booking for September 11 graduation for ship 12 div 302 from boot camp at Great Lakes Illinois I'm still hotel hunting and trying to find one of the hotels that will actually play the graduation in their lobby any and all help would be great thank you.

My SR is 302 and were from Louisiana.

Can someone tell me what week Ship 12 Division 302 is in at present? I got several letters from my SR but, can't figure out what week they are working on at this time. When will Battle Station 21 start? Also, can someone tell me if they practice the scenarios that are reproduced the night of Battle Station 21? I guess what  I am asking is  do our SR go over these situations before the actual night?? Just wondering how this is done.

Sorry if I'm doing this incorrectly. It is my first post/contact. Does anyone else have a son/daughter/spouse in PIR 9-11 going on to Pensacola? Sounds like the majority of them are staying in Great Lakes. We are from WI, but within 20 min of IL border so we are very close if any of you traveling in need anything. If we can't use last names but that's all our kids use, any suggestions for how to connect to the families of others they've become close to?
