Welcome, Daryl

Congrats to your son! Japan how cool. Steven is assigned to the USS Buckeley out of Norfolk and is being deployed in January to who knows where. He graduated with Honors also, yeah to our kids! He is home another week, time is flying by, and then he's off to the next phase.

Hi Daryl, how are things going with your son in Pensacola? My guy is home on leave and then heading off to his first assignment on a ship, out of Norfolk, so he's excited and looking forward to that new experience. Haven't hear from you since you were out at college in PA with your daughter, are you adjusting to your son being away? Write when you can or call me sometime.

I will have to try Skype also. Sounds like a great idea. I have sent a couple of care packages also. Adam seems to be hungry all the time also. Adam has had some trouble adjusting to Pensacola I think. His grades are low and has not "phased up" yet. Evidently, your son has been helping him. My son is very lucky to have him as a friend. He speaks highly of him.

I did not know they were roommates-I thought he said Matt lived next door to him, but he was glad about it just the same. My son seems to be adjusting real well to Pensacola. He may even be able to come home for a long weekend soon. I am also going to try to get up there for his graduation(not sure when that is at this point). Hope all is well with you. Tammy

Daryl my son Jeff Gordon says he has become friends with your son Matt. Jeff was born in Toms River and we lived there till he was 6yrs old. Jeff says Matt is a great guy. Jeff said that BS date is Tuesday 8/3 from 8pm till 8am and that we will receive a call from our SAILORS after the exam is over which will be Wed 8/4 int he AM. Good luck to them all.

No problem on using the last name...all taken care of. It's hard because the recruits GO by last names, so we all want to share to see if our recruits are friends with some on the site....anyway, no harm done!
I have changed the BStations date to 8/3. If their brother division is 265, I think you are right that they are probably going through at the same time.

Hey, sorry, but I had to delete one of your comments on the discussion group because you gave your last name. No last names on the site for security reasons...sorry! I wish I could have just deleted your name, but it doesn't allow me to do that. Just wanted to let you know!

Hey! Was he sure of the BS date being 8/4? A couple of other 266 moms thought it was the 3rd. They start one day and finish the next. I will leave it as the 4th for now....
