Hope you all recognize that new picture of the ship up above...yep, it's the Ramage!!



081222-N-6092C-125 PERSIAN GULF (Dec. 22, 2008) The guided-missile destroyer USS Ramage (DDG 61) transits through the Persian Gulf. Ramage is deployed as part of the Iwo Jima Expeditionary Strike Group (ESG) supporting maritime security operations in the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations. MSO help develop security in the maritime environment. From security arises stability that results in global economic prosperity. (U.S. Navy photo by Chief Fire Controlman Michael Clemente/Released)

Michelle, thank you for the reminder! The first info I give to new Ramage family members is to register with the Ramage website and make sure your name and email address is added to the ombudsmans and FRG email list. If you look above in the 'Links, pictures and other stuff' box you'll see the Ramage website and the ombudsman's email. And since the FRG email change is just about complete now I'll add the new FRG email address!

My son reported to the Ramage a year ago while it was deployed in the Gulf. Thanks to the members in this group there were Sailors on the ship to welcome my son aboard and they even knew his name! I shared that story with our CO at homecoming and he was thrilled to know we have so much support.

Most ships have FRG/Ombudsman emails and many of those ships also have groups on NavyForMoms! It's a win/win for all of us. So much support for us moms!

(are you sure that's the correct email? I thought it was RamageFRG@yahoo.com)

Thank you Melissa for keeping Sailors families in the loop! I would though like to state that there is an OFFICIAL USS Ramage FRG, whom works with the Command and provides information, activities, important fundraiser and email communications. To be on the Official USS Ramage list, please email Ramamgefrg@yahoo.com. Please provide your Sailors name, your name and relation to the Sailor for verification purposes! Thank you Kindly!

Good morning! I hope this message reaches you well. My name is Sonja Davis and I am your new Ombudsman effective August 7, 2009. I have attached an introduction letter so that we may become better acquainted. Please note that the Ombudsman email address has changed. The new address is ussramage_ombudsman@yahoo.com. This account will be deleted on August 22, 2009. If you no longer wish to receive emails from the Ombudsman, please send me an email indicating so. Also, if you have another email address you wish to use, please email me the information.

I will be sending you various emails as I receive them to keep you informed about upcoming events you and your family may wish to partake. In addition, any information from the command that you need to be made aware.

Otherwise, have a great weekend and I hope to meet you at the next FRG meeting!

I think we're all enjoying our "non-deployed" status right now.
Mary, Proud Mom of Nick Comment by Mary, Proud Mom of Nick on June 24, 2009 at 9:28pm
Mighty quiet in this Ramage room! What do we need to do send that ship out for a long deployment or something?!!!
