Got a surprise phone call from my son today.  Didn't expect it for another week.  Talked for about five minutes. His P days are done.  Training days start tomorrow. Ship 2 Div 911.

My son is going thru Battle Stations and PIR this Friday.

Although right now it might seems like a long time to you and family, it goes by very quickly.

I encourage you to write your recruit daily as my son indicated several recruits rarely heard from their families. I also included letters "to Any Sailor Recruit" expressing my appreciation for their decision to serve and an encouraging thoughts as well.

Treasure the phone calls from your SR.

Hi tony. Did your son call you again? I have gotten 2 called so far. This afternoons call sounded discouraged. He said his CRDC told them that they were so terrible they were going to be pushed back. I told him that everything that the RDC's did was scripted. It happens in every division. The RDC,s are trying to get them to come together as a team. To learn to police their own. He said the RDCs have started to give individual IT instead of group time. He is very glad of that! By end of week 4-5 they should be jelled. I told him to hang tough and do what he is told. Do it right the first time.
