unless you hear otherwise plan according to the schedule....you will not know for sure until the "I'm a sailor call" after battle stations, but that can come as late as Thursday.....

Hang tight to your phone and look out for that (847) area code for the "I'm a sailor call"...

I'm not sure if the scheduling for BS21 goes by the division numbers or not.  But my son is Division 299 and they completed BS21 Wednesday night into Thursday morning.  It takes 12 hours per Division and there are 13 Divisions scheduled to graduate next week.

Based on that and your daughter's Division number, you may be able to come up with a rough guess as to which day they may be taking BS21.  Then you can expect the call sometime that day after they have completed it.

My call came about 1:30 on Thursday.

Hope this helps you out a bit.

I do NOT believe they go in sequential division numbers....randomizing would be a security measure

We received our weekly letter from her yesterday and she mentioned she may be able to call this afternoon so we'll see. She sent the letters on Sunday so anything could have happened this week. I appreciate all of the comments. This site has been a God send.
