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 251 and 252

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!!!

My daughter is in DIV252 ship 03 I am excited for graduation :)

My son is Ship 03 Div 252 as well!  Although my husband and I are both Navy Veterans as well this has been so difficult as a mom.  We miss our son so much!

My son is Div 251.  I'm looking at the Navy lodge for our stay.  He will be going to A school at GL too.  So we have the weekend with him.  We are wondering about transportation, what is best for getting from base to the "L" and going into Chicago?  Looking for some input

I don't have a clue about transportation
We rented a car cuz we figured that
Might be easiest. We are staying at the Navy
Lodge.
Hello ladies,

Just joined this group as i have adopted a sailor who was a past student of mine. She is ship3 div 251. I also have my own son going to nuke power school in goose creek. I was at his pir in march. We rented a car and stayed at the navy lodge. If you get the chance to order pizza delivered try Dantis. I don't remember if i spelled it correctly, but the front desk suggested them.

My son is on Ship 03 Div 252 . Hello Ladies and good morning ! 

My son is Ship 03 Div 252, so nice to find this group..looking forward to sharing our adventure together!

Hi everyone.  My son is ship 03 DIV 252.  We are planning on staying at Navy Lodge 8/14, 15, & 16 and are renting a car.  Would be nice to get a group together to meet everyone...

Hello!  My son is in the same division as well.  We will be staying from 8/14 - 8/16 and leaving once he fly's out for "A" school on 8/16.  Maybe the parents could plan to meet up the evening before graduation?  That would be pretty cool since we are all probably feeling the same way and missing our babies so much!

 

My wife is in div 251 very proud of her and the rest of the crew
