Being a Navy Brat and an Army Vet I have learned a great deal about the services....so the best thing I can do is support Stevie and her parents as much as I can.
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
This was a maturing experience, The Navy has a lot to offer, This was the best decision he/she could have made

Hi Tiffany,

It's time for all of us to get together again. We are going to meet Saturday, August 29. I placed a discussion out there a while back, but with summer and busy schedules there weren’t too many responses. With that in mind, I am going to invite all who are interested to my home and we’ll BBQ and pack boxes and just catch up on our Sailors. I don’t know that I have all of the Colorado Moms on my email, so please feel free to pass this along to any on your friends list. As always the more the merrier. My address is 12165 W. 85th Avenue Arvada, CO 80005 303-463-8912 (home) 303-982-0590 (work). Please go to the event page and RSVP if you are coming.

Molly’s Adopt-A-Sailors have adopted the USS CROMMELIN. The USS Crommelin is a frigate and the home to 252 of our sailors. They are based out of Hawaii and are currently on deployment. There are 250 males and 2 females aboard.
And, not only are they happy about us adopting them, they are ecstatic!
They will be half-way through deployment about mid-September, so we are going to help them celebrate with a HAWAIIAN LUAU. Let’s show our Colorado Love.

Check out Molly’s Adopt-A-Sailor site for more details. The discussion link is August 09.

Hope to see lots of your smiling faces 

Hello Tiffany,Its been awhile,sorry.I just thought I'd tell you what James told me the other day,He said,I LOVE MY QM JOB.That is what Stevie has to look forward to.James doesn't tell me much about his job and what he does.( he just will say" I drive the boat" lol.) He did say,the real Navy is so much better after A school,Night and day.He loves it when they are out to sea,thats when he gets to do his job.Tell Stevie to hang in there the best is yet to come.

Tiffany:
SCC is more of a basic in processing I think> How easy one forgets. Then she will take an ATT course that is an electronic course. It is a self paced computerired course that gives all the sailors a basic knowledge of electricty. That way when they are on the ship they are all using the same technology etc. Then she will start her other training. She is also probably working towards higher phases of liberty. They gradually give them freedom. Which is probably a good thing. She might even change ships (barracks) from shen she starts SCC to her A school, so don't be surprised.

I grew up Army so this is all new to me too! Thank goodness some of it is the same!LOL

Hi Tiffany,

Good to hear from another Co. girl!! Yes Sam and Stevie were in div 370 and friends. How great was the PIR we had a great time out there. It was just so good to see Sam and spend time with her that BC thing was so hard!! So Stevie stayed in Great Lakes? Did she move across the street?? I'll bet she was happy to get out of BC!! I know Sam was. She is now in Pensacola and is thrilled to be there. She is on hold for A school I guess they are backed up. She will be an Air Crewman. Her feet are not 100% the right is worse so I'm hoping she can get them taken care of in FL. So good to hear from you. We live in Arvada I was just up in Longmont not long ago for work!! Good to hear from you!
Take Care God Bless your Day,
Tammie Sammies mommy

Hi Tiffany, We are from the Longmont area. Our son PIR'd 10/3 as well, WOW I haven't cried that hard for a loonnngg time - tears of PRIDE. I do have some questions for you, Jared is now in Pensacola and is on hold for 15 weeks, I believe is in the AT program but not sure about that. Do you know, are they granted liberty while they are on hold, I hear that they get liberty in A school, but he is not technically in A school yet... I am trying to make holiday plans. God Bless.
