My daughter, Ashley (20), has been in the Navy for 2 years and is an IT3 & my son Tim (19) has been in since Feb 2008 stationed on the USS Nimitz.. What will your son be doing with the Navy?

Hi Lynne,
I have a new recruit in the navy also. I have not had a letter or anything personal but his clothes in a box. It is weird not having more than one phone call.
I miss him terribly.

OH when you find out your division/ship create a group so all those who are in the same "ship" can meet up and share stories through out the boot camp. There is also several other groups on here that you will find that suits your lifestyle as well... Again Welcome!!!!
