Do you remember the day that you got the call? Hi Mom I'm officially a sailor.
I was sitting in an all-day inservice day (that we have at the end of our school year each year), not knowing when the phone would ring. I had told my colleges that the phone was in my pocket on vi...

Christmas Exodus
I spoke to my son in GC last night. He has been approved for a while. We are only 220 miles from there so it is within limits. I have talked to Karen Gallagher (since she has three in the Nuke fiel...

Profile Information
- About me:
- My name is Lynne and I am from Liberty, SC. I have a 22 year old son, Adam, who is currently in Ballston Spa, NY in prototype which is the final stage of training in the nuclear program. His rate is now EM3 and he is referred to as Petty Officer. I am married to Jim and have two other sons as well. Chris is 30 and Shane is 19. I also have a wonderful granddaughter, Brentley (daughter of my oldest son). She is the light of our lives!
- I am here to support or represent my:
- Adam
- Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
- Enlisted
- When I heard “Navy,” I:
- Was proud
- From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
- It is hard to "let them go" and waiting for boot camp to end is one of the hardest things I have ever done! But thanks to all my wonderful friends on here, and some very dear ones that I met through N4M that I still keep in touch with even though our boys are all in different places, I made it through. I guess the most important thing I learned is I have to let him go, grow up and fulfill his dream. And it is an awesome feeling to see him accomplish so much! My son, the United States Sailor!
- Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
- Our relationship has grown stronger

A Sailor Comes Home for Christmas
On December 19, after graduating A school and becoming a Petty Officer, my sailor son arrived home for 2 weeks leave for Christmas. What a wonderful time we had while he was home! We didn't plan much other than the family get-togethers, and there was on… Continue

- Hi Lynne. Yes, and we are traveling to see his A School Graduation which is tomorrow. We are driving to Goose Creek today. Robert is picking up the key for the Villas and I hope they tell him how to get there. We have been to Goose Creek before, but stayed at a motel in North Charleston.

Michele said… - Hi, Lynne - added you as a friend, and caught myself restating same info here... thanks for the alert to the picture company. That is as good a place as any to start. I would think they still have them available in their archives.
Blue Skies!

- Lynn, do you, by chance have a copy of the PIR graduation (seems like such a long time ago, when you write the words) when our sailors graduated on 6-13-08? If you don't, do you know any of the other sailor Moms who might have one from that day that I could contact to get a copy of the DVD? If so, I'd sure appreciate it. Hope all is well with your Adam.

Daylene, Terry's mom said… - Lynn.....thank your for the compliment!!!

Diana said… - Hi Lynn,
Yes I know... it has been a very long time I see that Adam is doing very well I know how proud you are of your son. I hope everything is well with you and your family. Matt is doing wonderful. He is in VA, however he just shipped out of Dan Diego Sat. for his qualification for his job. He is on the USS Carl Venson. but he is on the USS John C Stennis for his job quals. He was so excited. Well this year my husband and are expecting our first Granddaughter. Its our middle son and his beautiful wife. Matt is disappointed that he wont be here for the birth of his niece but we will take a lot of pictures and I'm sure she will absolutely know her Uncle Matt. I was up and you came to mind. Thought I would say hello and wish you a very belated Happy New Year. Take Care Diana

Pat L. in IL said… - Dear Lynne, It is my turn to apologize for not getting back to you sooner. Jeff was home for Christmas and we all had a wonderful time. Then before I knew it, Jan 2 rolled around and it was time for him to leave. Gosh, I hope someday that goodbye stuff gets easier. (Unfortunately, I hear it doesn't) Well our new year isn't off to a very good start. Trying to decide what to do with my mother in law (nursing home vs assisted living.) One very good friend starting chemo this week for lung cancer (non-smoker) and another waiting for results of a breast biopsy. Doing my best to help and be supportive but sometimes it just gets you down. Thanks for letting me vent a little!!! Pat

Karen Gallagher said… - Yes well all of my guys want (well Jacob is on) a sub. It is a nice things as there are less sailors and it is a closer community than on a carrier. Now mind you I could never stand to be on a sub (lol) but the guys think this is the best!
and as Jacob tells me the weather is always 70 and florescent LOL
God Bless
