NavyNucMom Christmas At Sea

The sea is cold, the night is dark... the blowing wind is crisp, I stare across the ship's huge deck... I did not get my wish. I wanted so, to be at home... this year on Christmas Eve, But this will be the year that I... did not get Christmas leave. I stand and think about my family... gathered by the tree, I know that one will say my name... and then they'll think of me. I am not there to share their joy... my country needs me here, But I am not the only one... who won't get home this year. I… Continue

NavyNucMom A Sailor's Christmas

Sailor's Christmas Twas the night before Christmas, the ship was out steaming, Sailors stood watch while others were dreaming. They lived in a crowd with racks tight and small, In a 80-man berthing, cramped one and all. I had come down the stack with presents to give, And to see inside just who might perhaps live. I looked all about, a strange sight did I see, No tinsel, no presents, not even a tree. No stockings were hung, shined boots close at hand, On the bulkhead hung pictures of a far dis… Continue

The cards arrived onboard on 24 December as we arrived inport Vasco Nunez de Balboa, Panama. I had called away an All Hands working party to bring the mail and other stores (food and parts) onboard.

Cathy I AM THE MOTHER OF U.S. NAVY SAILOR!!

Well it's finally confirmed as of Friday, October 17th. I got a call from Luke telling me he passed Battlestations with flying colors. He made it sound like it was so easy.

It seems to just blend with his personality perfectly. I hope that will always be the case as he makes his way through A school and then… Continue

Robin (Trae's Mom) Nevous Breakdown

Lord, what a wreck I have been. My cell phone has not left my field of vision for almost 5 weeks, as I have been anxiously awaiting a second call from Trae. Our plan was the same for this upcoming phone call as the last. Trae was to call my phone and then I would 3-way with his dad so we could all talk at one time. Good idea right? In theory, yes. As I stated my phone has not left my field of vision for 5 weeks, that is until today. I put the stupid thing on vibrate because I had a meeting this… Continue
