Hi everyone, I haven't been on in a while. I had a surprise visit from my sailor. He arrived on Jul;y 1st and left yesterday to return to Jaxs. It was great having him home. I hate the goodbyes.
Cindy I can relate. I cried Sunday after he went to bed and cried off and on all day yesterday. I miss him fiercely when he isn't here. Talking about it now brings a lump to my throat.

- Lynn Matt put Whidbey down as his first choice and he was lucky enough to get assigend there. I think he was the only one at the end that put WA first. There are 3 others from his class that were assigned there also.
