My name is Donna. My son is an E-5 & a Nuke & was on a submarine out of Kings Bay, GA. He is now doing recruiting out of Brooksville, FL
My child's FIRST name only (No Last Names Please!):
Charles
My son/daughter is:
Enlisted
I was the proudest of my child when:
I am always proud of my son!
When my son/daughter first spoke about joining the service I:
Was concerned or afraid
As a new Navy mom, the most important thing I learned was:
This was something my son needed to do for himself. After I got use to the idea (I still do not like it), I realized that it was his life and he was doing what he thought was right.
My son/daughter is currently in the service or retired, and now I believe:
Man, could I use a cup of coffee with a Navy mom! Don just left for his duty station again.....his girl was in town too she leaves to go back to her duty station also. The emotional up's and down's with all this is tough.
My daughter will be a CT-R. She is hoping to be stationed in Japan (has wanted to go there since she was about 12)! She is now on day 3 of BC. How does your son like subs?

Hi, Donna! I read that your son was a Nuke and was on a sub - my husband is in the Nuke program and wants to do subs. What kind of sub was your son on?
Hi Donna, My name is Karen I live in Weeki Wachee, even though my zip is Brooksville. I live off of 50 in Royal Highlands. My son is an E-4 and actually enlisted in Brooksville about 2 years ago. He is an IT stationed on a new destroyer ,USS Nitze out of Norfolk, Va. He is currently IA in Iraq. He felt he should go instead of a female shipmate. He is doing well and I get to talk to him alot which helps. He should be back the end of June if everything goes well. I'm used to the Navy life since my husband was in for 15 years but it never gets easier, you always worry. It was nice to see someone close to home on N4M's.
sure, let us know what time, date and of course place :-) Thank God everything is fine!! our Daniel is loving the Navy he will be in Virgina on the 5 of Nov. where he will be for a year then off to sea for seven months. How is everything with you ?? :-)
