Groton is close to me (well sort of, relatively, about 1 hr). Do you believe I've lived in CT all my life and I've never been to the sub base? And my son is a NUKE too! He also has a very long apprenticeship training ahead of him. I'm sure your fa...
Hi all....we didn't Michael home for Thanksgiving but he was close enough to my moms to go stay with my family for the weekend (he is in Groton, CT...we are in Georgia but my mom & siblings live in upstate NY)So it was hard to have him gone but I ...
AliciaL - You must be so proud. Best of luck to D, and I pray you will have some good family time soon.
Alicia: that's really cool his commanding officer called/emailed him! Jer's ship is currently deployed, so he doesn't even have a sponser..kinda sucks for him. Doesn't D get to use any of his leave to come home before he has to report to his ship?...
This group is for the Alumni of PIR 9/3/09 to keep in touch. I changed the name, sorry, I didn't mean to exclude 842,843 and 942!
My computer at home died (is in the shop) and I may not be able to get back online this week as I am only at work today and tomorrow...if I don't have another opportunity to say it...
On this Thanksgiving, I am thankful for each of you. You ladie...
Wow, Marissa is beautiful. What an amazing concept...beautiful accomplished woman AND a sailor!
D won't be home for Thanksgiving. He is stuck in Chicago until Dec 1, when he flies to San Diego to join the USS Dubuque. Very excited as they will be...
Susan, Beautiful dress, beautiful young woman!
I think the holidays will be the hardest on everyone if their sailors are away from home, my heart goes out to you.
Luckily (I still have my fingers crossed) Joe will be home for Thanksgiving. I booked the flight, but he still doesn't have his 'Ch...
MommaBecky - I'm so glad you've got your sailor back! What a blessing that things worked out so well for him. Is he looking forward to Bahrain? I've heard it's a desirable duty station because they pick up extra pay for overseas. Send my best wish...
Hi Thanks for the well wishes, and info on USS Enterprise. We are heading up to Chicago for Thanksgiving but found out Ty has duty and watch and unable to change it, oh well, we will be with him on Friday and Saturday, then if all goes well, 15 da...
Adam graduated MA A school yesterday in San Antonio and we picked him up at the airport this morning for two glorious weeks before he heads out to Bahrain. I couldn't keep my hands off him and was out of the car running before it got stopped at th...
Congratulations to your and your sailor Tyguymom. It's exciting when these kids finally make it out to the fleet.
What are everyone's loved ones doing for Thanksgiving? Marissa will be spending her time on base. It will be strange not having her ...
Ty Gy mom - and Superman's mom, good to see you back. Best of luck to your sailor on the USS Enterprise. One way I keep up to date on the fleet is signing up for Navy News email. There are N4M's groups out there for practically all the different s...
Have not been on in a while, my sailor just received orders to USS Enterprise, Anyone know anything about the ship, Norfolk etc. I am excited he will be home for leave 15 day over Christmas. Thanks God Bless
GO MOMMY!!!!!! Don't mess with our kids...it may take more than a fleet to stave off Mom (lol).
Information is a powerful tool. I'll be praying for Marissa!

- Hi Barbara - thanks for your words. I am taking the day off tomorrow to get some calls made. The first ones will be to our attorney and MD. Marissa was fine before she left home. This happened to her in Boot Camp and was made worse with the poor treatment she was given in A school. I am trying really hard to be objective, but I'm also trying my hardest to cover our bases. From what I've already read on this site, she has no benefits because she's been in for less than 6 months. My husband talked to a teacher he works with who's been through this nightmare. She told him to advise Marissa not to sign anything. We already have medical power of attorney and I will be calling our MEPS to get info about who to call at Great Lakes tomorrow. She's only 18, for God's sake! She can't do this on her own.
