I know this group has been pretty quiet lately, and we all need to make sure we're still careful about opsec (i.e. not mentioning or hinting about specific dates); but since I've just finalized my travel arrangements to be there for homecoming, I was wondering if any from the group might be there either for homecoming or the tiger cruise?

I want to thank you again for your help. I called NEX and they gave me a 800 number, my son can call and order his uniform and they will ship it right to the ship. Problem solved.

Hi Nancy ! Hi Ladies !
wow .... I just wrote this really nice long message & then ... it was gone.

Its been sooo long since I spoke with any of you. I miss having everyone to talk to & hearing about everyone & their sailors. Well, I lost my job back in the beginining of the yr & was so worried abt finding another. And everyone here was so supportive, Thank you ! Well, I did ! And I got a promotion ! I am a college Admissions Advisor ! And, I work with MILITARY PERSONNEL ! Helping all ACTIVE DUTY, Veterans, & Spouses get their education. We help them with their TA (Tuition Assistance, for Active Duty & Reserve), GI Bills, & veterans who have expired their time eligibility, and spouses. My school even offers a discount for Military Personnel & their spouses. I am so happy to help them & tell them about the benefits that to my surprise, alot of them do not even know they have ! I enroll students everyday that get their education for free ... yea, I said FREE ! (Any questions, PM or eMail me @ kgb218@gmail.com)
Hope you all & yours are doing well ! I know the ship has been out for awhile now & everyone can hardly wait for their return !
Take Care & keep in touch ! I will try to come back soon (now that I had to reset my password, cuz I locked myself out, duh !)

It would be worth a call to the Norfolk NEX to see - here's the number:
757-440-2247

OK ladies I have a good one for you. See how I can solve this problem. My son got to the ship in Aug. He doesn't have the new uniform. The blue ones. He needs them before the ship gets back home or he can't stand on top deck at home comming or leave the ship until liberty is called. I know its not a life or death problem but I so want him to take part in everything. You know how moms are, How can he get his uniform before they come home? Will the NEX ship them to the ship? Any help, please.
