As far as box packing stuff, my son likes the Crystal Lite drink packets. He says it works well when the water is "green". Also, I have bought him some Dr. Scholls inserts for his boots.

Holy crazy storm Batman, that Typhoon is huge. So happy that they aren't setting out in the middle of that!

If you'll go here: https://www.cnic.navy.mil/Yokosuka/index.htm
Click on the yellow weather box, click on purple "click here", then click on the "satellite" button, then on the "Westpac MTSAT IR" link. You can see the typhoon they're dodging...just giving it time to pass them by...

Here's the link for Atsugi: https://www.cnic.navy.mil/Atsugi/index.htm

Hope that helps...

Good Morning All, My son called Friday night about 10:00 CA time. This is his 1st deployment, and he is so excited to finally get to do what he has been training for. I think he is going to be having some pretty long days ahead of him.
I will be praying for all the sailors aboard the GW and all military persons as well. Keep them safe and out of harms way.
Thank you also to everyone here. What a Great bunch of people.

Got the last minute we're outa here for a couple of months. So back to sea they go, at least I know when he's at sea he isn't partying all the time. So for thim mom that's a good thing

Dawna, once your daughter gets her military email you will be able to communicate with her that way. I would write her right away to make sure she knows to get her email address for the ship.

For all us mom's who pray let us pray for the safety of the USS George Washington, all her sailors and airmen and women. May the world remain calm, and that our kids say out of the Persian Gulf!
