Hey y'all,

Well I am getting ready to deal with the 2nd deployment with my Sailor since we have been together. I feel I am more prepared and ready to be a big support & not give him reason to worry about me.

My son is in Ship #6 Divi 919. I was just wondering if anyone else out there is in the same Boat?

She called me and told me to keep her laptop that she was going to buy a new one that had the camera built into it for Skype and windows 7. She was so excited to go and make her first big purchase. She called last night and we got to see her. She looks wonderful. It was really nice to be able to see her. Internet is a wonderful…

Good morning. My son announce 2 weeks ago he wanted to quit college and join the navy. I am not surprised he wants to join because he has talked about it since jr. high but hasn't pushed it in any way. He recently had a very good friend who died and I am assuming this is a reaction to his friends death. I have done a lot of researching on the processes the mena nd women go through. One thing I have def. learned--lots of abbreviations--help. Anyway, I am very very concerned he is making a…
