Hello! My husband and I plan on attending the commissioning ceremony. I have heard that it is a very formal affair but since it is at 11:00 am I am wondering what I should wear. My husband is retired…Continue

Comment by kk on May 10, 2013 at 8:50pm Okay so I found it,,,,thanks anyway.
Comment by kk on May 1, 2013 at 9:27pm Hi everybody. My son is on the Uss Harry S Truman. His recruiter, also his friend is on the USS Gravely. I sent my son's friend a care package early on in his deployment and it got to him. I have since sent two letters with the same address and both have been returned to me saying they are inadequately addressed.
It upsets me that the US mail can not seem to deliver my letters. Do you think it is because my letters do not have the four digit zip code on them? If so can one of you guys please private message me the four digit code. I guess all ships have been assigned four digit zip codes. I have the Truman's but not the USS Gravely's.
I would really like to send more care packages and letters. Please advise me of what I may be doing wrong. Thank you all in advance for your help.
Comment by singingbird on May 1, 2013 at 9:01pm Mine just called (a wonderful real call this time) and he has requested sunscreen. I posted elsewhere, isn't there a ship's store that sells this? And if not, can I send him some. This request is a mark of maturity - lol - he fought sunscreen for years.
Comment by liz on May 1, 2013 at 8:43pm My son requested clinical strength deodorant. Do you think there might be a bo problem on ship? Lol
Comment by liz on April 26, 2013 at 3:07pm Haven't seen any activity here for days! Where is everyone? My son really likes being on the ship and is getting his sea legs. It's great that they can communicate with us. Certainly not like the old days.
Mary - thanks for the information about the Facebook page. I had no idea!
Comment by Mary on March 28, 2013 at 2:40pm If anyone is on Facebook, I find info about the sixth fleet on their Facebook page. There are also links with lots of pictures about what they are doing in the Mediterranean.
Comment by liz on March 26, 2013 at 9:53pm Hi everyone. I'm new to the group. My son is on his way to join the ship. I just watched the video and I'm so happy to see what it all looks like. I'll be anxious to read all the comments.
Comment by Roses4bud on March 25, 2013 at 10:27pm i recently saw that video. My son also on ship. Doing well
Comment by Mary on March 25, 2013 at 3:56pm I noticed that video on you tube awhile ago...I thought it was strange that it was out there for the world to see. My son has been emailing. He is very busy but is in good spirits. The ship is doing well.
