AZ MOMS MEET-UP WITH THE ADMIRAL! at US Airways Arena
March 17, 2013 from 1:30pm to 3:30pm
Admiral Scott Sanders is coming back to Phoenix, and had such a great time meeting Navy moms (and dads and sailors) last time he wants to do it again! We've arranged a very special behind-the-scenes tour of the Phoenix Suns/US Airways Arena, and RADM Sanders will talk with us, give us an update on what the Navy is up to, and answer questions. This is a special opportunity as admirals don't come here very often, much less ask to meet with US! He is a great person and amazing speaker. The…See More

He told us that his group is the last one for the chief they have so they are really getting pushed hard. He told us last week to keep the phone close on June 30-July 1. I presume this…"

How is your boyfriend doing? We got three letters from our son yesterday. We are looking forward to going to PIR. Are you going to the meet & greet the night before PIR?"
Diane1954 commented on Joyce Tucson Mom's group 'Arizona Moms'"Charlotte - congrats on your son's graduation! I know you will enjoy it. I know we did the first time & will be doing again in 4 weeks. Our son is also in a 900 division. "
Diane1954 replied to Jasmine<3's discussion 'new to this' in the group Boot Camp Mom's"Patience is the main thing. The box of clothing usually comes in a week or less. About a week or so after that, the first form letter comes with his address & graduation date. There is a spot where they can write 3-4…"

Diane1954 commented on Joyce Tucson Mom's group 'Arizona Moms'"Stacey: Yes - I just let them keep coming & check on them once a day or so. Once our son is out of BC, I won't be following that anymore. I was following the group for his A school, but that just got to be way too…"
Diane1954 commented on Jaz's group 'Phoenix and Surrounding Cities in Arizona.'"Stacey: Congrats on your son's upcoming graduation. Our #2 son will be graduating 7/8. We also will be going to his. I think as far as atttending A school graduation really depends on your son - whether or not he wants…"
Diane1954 commented on Jaz's group 'Phoenix and Surrounding Cities in Arizona.'"We got our first letters from #2 son from BC. He is in a 900 division & in the color guard. He will be carrying the US flag in the 100th anniversary PIR. That is really awesome!!!"

ProudAzMom said… - Hi Diane1954, I have not been to the Arizona Mom's site for awhile, I have been spending most of my time on the Bootcamp Moms group, and his ship/div group. I did not know you responded to me. I am sorry I have not answered back. I am still trying to navigate my way around the conversations and blogs. My son is 2 weeks into bootcamp. The 1st week I was an absolute mess. Crying every day, depressed, anxiety.. I guess you know what I am going through. Thank you for reaching out. I was not sure there were any active Navy Mom's out there, or any that have kids in BC. Did your son go through BC in Great Lakes?
Thanks! Pam
