Rosemarie, If they are injured during bootcamp, they are usually sent home with no coverage from the Navy which is very unfortunate...if you go to the Ship 17 forum there is a great deal of information from others parents & loved ones that have ha...

The Journey is Almost Over

Well our journey is almost over...I just spoke to Michael & he stated that he signed his separation papers on the 11th & he should be leaving there no later than the 25th...he said that he will get a 10 minute call the day before he leaves to give us the travel information...he said that his separation papers state that it was an "erroneous enlistment"...not sure what that means but guess we will figure that out when he gets home...he has decided that he is going to take a bus home rathe… Continue

Week 4

I'm not sure how this blog stuff works but I'm going to try it anyhow...I received my 3rd letter from Michael yesterday...it was kind of cute...he had dated the top of the letter like this "June ??, 2008"...he then went on to tell me that he had the question marks for the day of the month because he has lost total track of the date...lol...he said he knew it was Friday and 3-2 day...he said the reason that he knew it was Friday is because they start a new week of training every Thursday...so if… Continue

Hi Ruth,
Have not heard from you in a very long time, I hope all is well with you and I hope Michael is doing okay.
Levi is home and doing well, paper work has gone back in to re-enlist, Yuk!
But you are on my mind and I hope you are okay.

Hi Ruth: How are you and Michael? We are okay, Rachel is doing well in the Medical Assistant Program. Husband still can't grasp the idea the Navy was not for her. Hopefully some day will recognize that. Hope all is well.

Ruth: I am terrified. I think I may have caused more trouble for my son than he was in. Can I contact you privately. I don't want what I have to say posted here.

Hi fellow early bird, how are you! Hope your Thanksgiving was good. Mike is out on disability, probably permanent, and Matt is still job hunting.

Hi Ruth: how is everything? How is Michael doing at the job? Rachel finally applied for some jobs, but we are still checking out the schools. She seems to be in good spirits. I asked her if she wants to get rid of her hat only had it 3 days as the day she arrived on the ship got blown away and had to replace it asap but we are surprised she wants to keep it.

Ruth,

I'm so happy for Michael! Courtney finally made it home. She has moved to Erie (about 30 miles from Home) and is taking classes for Dental Assistant. She'a doing very well. Joe just got new that he has been accepted into the Nuke program, so his leave has moved out till Jan or Feb. That's fine with me, now he'll be home for the holidays! Well, I will keep Michael in my prayers, take car and stay in touch.
