Hi NewSeason888, my son is in his 4th week of BC. He just called me yesterday and I hadn't heard from him in 23 days. He was allowed a call when he got there but didn't want to pick between me or his father, so he called his brother which passed o...
Happy ThanksGiving to all of you & our Sailors! Gloria may the many Thanksgiving you shared creating memories with your mother, warm your heart. I lost my mother at age 5 so many of you who have had many years with your mother's have been blessed ...
Happy & Blessed Thanksgiving to You All and our Sailors! I finally got my phone call yesterday. We talked about 5 minutes, he had just finished his work out in the Gym. He said that he lost 5 from his ship due to medical and not conforming. He als...

Hi,

John's mom, who is a
Missile Technician on a
Sub, going to Connecticut
Thanx for adding us to the list.
Hi Moms, John is in Ship 3/Div 040. Remembering back to my Basic Training days. Writing a letter was just one more thing to do when all I wanted to do was nothing. So because I know how I felt, I doubt that has changed much. I am writing him often...

Hi All, John is on Ship 3/040. I read somewhere on this site that he will graduate Dec 30. I wonder if that might change. What kind of navy info did you all receive in the return box. His went to his dad who doesn't communicate with me. Would appr...

Hi Moms, I enjoyed a free dinner at AppleBees and the first free meal I've gotten for being a vet. Have any of you enjoyed a free meal because of being a vet before?
Happy Veterans Day to all us moms and to our sailors. God Bless their journeys has ours were!
Hi Bran's Mom, It depends on his upbringing. My son is an AF Brat and got stationed in Hawaii around 2 years ago. He was used to moving and setting up home in new countries or states. So it depends if your son has left home much. If he hasn't, it ...
Hi Carolina Tarheel, Congrats to your daughter. I went to Biloxi, Mississippi for Air Force Tech School back in 77 and 80. I didn't know the Navy also uses it. Hurricane Katrina had done a number on it. Destroying buildings and many had to be evac...
Hi Moms, thanx for your notes. Its nice to see Johnnie isn't alone in his size. I'm supposed to get Johnnie's address today from the recruiter. Did it take long for you all to get the address to write your sailors?

- 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:
- I'm not able to communicate as much with my son. He can get emails and has called from Ports before. It is an ongoing learning experience.
- Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
- It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

Misplacedeyes said… - Georganna, as a former sailor of the Crommelin I just wanted to answer one of your questions... Sometimes the Crommelin will host a family cruise for all the family members to take a trip out to sea with their loved ones...

LLovemytwosailors said… - Hey Georganna, The package with the Leis and the Coconut Bra and grass skirt has arrived. I also am sending about 25 pillowcases to the Crommelin. It looks like they are going to have a great Luau. I just keep wondering who is going to wear that coconut bra.

- Georgana, Read "Blind Man's Bluff." Its an old book but the best one that has been written on the history of the Submarine service. If you can't get it in the Library you can get it on Amazon. They did extensive research and it is really well written. Let me know if you like it.

Angie F.- WA: HM mom said… - Hi Georganna, wanted to welcome you to DEPpers! Wondering if you have met my fabulous friend Sheila C. from Kentucky whose son Martin is also aboard the Crommelin? Maybe not, since you are so new to the site. He is a BM. They probably know each other. A frigate is pretty small, cramped quarters, I've heard there's no AC! Wanted you to know that there is an exciting undertaking happening here on site even as your son is underway. Maybe I should let you go see and read for yourself:
http://www.navyformoms.com/group/mollysadoptasailorproject
Click on the link to go there, check up in the discussions for August-the ALOHA one.:D
Looking forward to getting to know you and all about both your Navy sons! God Bless!
