"The picture is great, Marianne! A proud moment for sure. Did she say anything to you about the unmanned plane taking off? I hope she got to see that bit of history in the making. She will always be able to tell people, "I was there.""

Profile Information

About me:
Wife for 40 years, mother for 36 years, Scott is my youngest and I'm proud that he is now a nuke sailor. I retired in early 2012 after 25 years working for the U S Postal Service. I'm looking forward to the career possibilities for Scott in the Navy and was not be surprised when he signed up for 3 more years in 2012.
I am here to support or represent my:
Son/Daughter
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I:
Was proud and encouraged it
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
The Navy has helped Scott mature and grow as a person. Now he is experiencing new cultures whenever he is deployed. I'm very proud of his decision to join the Navy.
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

Good morning,

Yes this is better. I will only need one or two names as my son is receiving one of the boxes and someone else in the group may bring one name.

Hi Lorraine!  Yes, I've been a member of Molly's for some time now, and enjoy the group's energy so much!  As a corpsman mom, I try to send packages to other corpsmen stationed with Marines in Afghanistan whose moms I meet in our Corpsmen Moms and Dads group here on N4M, or occasionally to corpsmen who post needs via the editor of Corpsman.com.  My son is an anesthesia tech, and is currently stationed in Naples, Italy after duty stations at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth (Virginia) and with a Fleet Surgical Team.  I've never known a postmaster personally before, how perfect for you to be heading up a Molly's adoption this year! ( I've gotten to know the folks at the counter at Phoenix's main office pretty well since joining Molly's :)  they're terrific and always so helpful and supportive.)  Congratulations to you on such a successful July adoption effort!!

From your earlier post, I think you said you were coming over on I94 to M14 to 275?  If so, when 94 comes to 23 if you go S on 23 about a mile, there is a park'n'ride type lot right at the Plymouth Rd exit on US23.

If this will work for you, let me know the time you would like me to be there.  My # is734-545-5978.

Thanks so much for considering this,

Marianne Krueger

Thanks for the information, Lorraine. We were very excited to get our first international adoption request but then we thought uh-oh BIG $$$$$$$$$$  as they are actually in the United Arab Emirates.

Think we are going to explore finding a US unit and try to do exactly what you suggested!

Thanks again! Pat

Hi Lorraine, I saw that you are a retired postmaster and we need your expertise! Molly's Adopt A Sailor received an adoption requesy by a British group stationed near some of our soldiers. We have questions about mailing to them. Instead of an APO/FPO address they have BFPO. Any information would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks Lorraine, I am so excited for my grandson and so appreciate you wanting to char with me.  i am an information addict I guess you could say.  With your son being on there for a year I am sure you can help me feed that addiction LOL  I have a second grandson that just went into the Navy a week ago today, YIKES the poor kid is going through that awful time right now haha.  He also wants to be on subs as an FT.

Hey Lorraine thanks for responding to me yesterday I really appreciate it.  My son, Matt, is so excited.   I am just sad.  All I can think about is five years having you in my corner sure will help.

Thats funny.  Sounds just like my son. And his name is also Scott!  His nickname is ISH, at least that is what all of his "civilan" friends call him. He is also over 6' and silm.  He calls himself a missle launcher.  Not exactly sure what rank or another name is for it..LOL.  So much info all the time..
