The regular way to describe people you graduate with from schooling, go with to the MTC, go with into the mission field is to describe the groups as a "BATCH".  Thus the missionaries who left on August 8 were the August Batch. We were included with them, even though we're leaving on the 20th.

This is a photo of the August Batch, taken the day that they left.

Elder Bryan, with whom we have worked closely was also transferred on that same day.
