- How important it is to be supportive not just to your own sailor, but to all you come in contact with. I mean all branches of service.

Tammy, Yes, Molly meant me. When she said go to the website, she meant that you can reach me at newmoms@mollysadoptasailor.com. Do you have a date for packing boxes? Send a request for the paperwork to dberland@mollysadoptasailor.com. (instructions come with them). Then after you pack the boxes and know the number, scan and email the forms back to Diane. She will print the postage and email it to you. Just print it out and put it one the boxes. Do you need help with customs forms? When "Molly's" pays the postage the return address has to be Molly. I'm going to send you a friend request so I can give you my phone number and you can call with any questions. Pat

Where is your Sailor stationed (what vessel, if one) and what is his rating (job)? There may be groups I can direct you to.
