Sherry replied to navywoman16's discussion 'Has anyone heard of this my son just told me about it'
I have not heard of that, but I wouldn't doubt it. And I know for sure my son would not swear to that. Good question, maybe an honorable discharge?

Profile Information

About me:
I am the Mom of a Navy/Marine Corpsman (Medic). He has been deployed to Afghanistan.
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:

You for our freedo… Continue

My daughter, Ashley (20), has been in the Navy since July 2007 and is an IT3 & my son Tim (19) has been in since Feb 2008 stationed on the USS Nimitz.. What is your son doing with the Navy?
