Hey all - are any of you in this group relatives of MSRON 2 Sailors? Glen

I have to laugh. Our son called my wife the other day and asked if the potatoe salad we gave him 2 weeks ago was still ok to eat. It's been sitting in his fridge. You can put a uniform on them but they are still the same kids sometimes.

Isn't it great that you can seen him fairly frequently. We're in Richmond and we saw Jenn almost every weekend. They are just far enough away to get used to being on their own and just close enough that if they start getting homesick, they can come home. It was like having the best of two worlds.

Used to be in 6 - Det 27 -- my guess is that there's no one left there now that would remember her.

Danny is coming home for the weekend and is bringing 2 other Sailors with him. We've restocked the steaks and beer and I'm going to have to stake out my claim on the remote control for some college football tomorrow. :) We're so glad we're close enough for him to come home and that we get to meet some other Sailors and open up our home to them. It makes me feel good....like buying a meal for a traveling Sailor, Marine or soldier in the airport. It's just the right thing to do!

When my daughter was in Portsmouth (3years), she had an apartment in Churchland for 1 year and then moved to VA Beach for the rest. Portsmouth itself isn't much. We live in VA and visited her often so I know my way around that area pretty well. To get someplace fairly nice -- you need to live NOT in Portsmouth.

Brenda Sue - our son Dan is in MSRON 2, BOATDET 21. He's a Gunners Mate, just arrived in Portsmouth less than 2 weeks ago. He likes it a lot. Doing PT, getting oriented, lots of classroom training. We'd be interested in hearing what the rest of you hear from your Sailors. How many of your Sailors are in East Coast MSRON units? Glen

I agree with Linda - thanks for starting the group.

My Sailor is a MSRON - and should be headed for Spain just any day now.
What types of things have your sailors done with this rate?
Mine is MSRON 4.

Hope you don't mind that I want to be a member of this too. Great idea to start a group.
