Adopt a Sailor
I just found this website (thanks Shell) And decided I am going to do this.
I think we N4M could make a big difference in some sailors lives if all of us would just write one letter (you can do more if you want) Geez we did this in Boot camp we can do this again.
Just one letter, postcard or package a month. Lets try to see is we can do this, and if it works out we can pick a new name each month.
I will try to set this up if you all want. But before I start this I need to know who would be in ?
I dont want to request a name, get a name then they get 1 little letter :(
Here is the site to check out ...... http://anysailor.com/index.cfm
Take a look and tell me what you think.
I bet we could do this ladies and how cool for our sailors to get letters from Navy moms.
It appears that they have so many seebees that need our help, letters full of Mom hugs !
Let me know !

The adopt a sailor groups are kinda large (like 15 or more) I think it would be great if we did it as a N4M group, I know they would get more letters if we did it together rather then we all adopt on our own.
Count me in! Let me know how it works

You can count me in! I just posted a discussion asking for names of any recruits at BC who may need letters, then I found this. I love this site!!! My nest is so empty...guess I need to feel needed.

Molly, I found this poem on the anysailor.com site and wanted to share. It says it all...
A soldier in Iraq can't see your ribbon,
Or the flag at your front door.
But a letter they hold in their hands,
To them means so much more.
