Ang commented on navywife4life2009's blog post 'what is the Navy's policy about tattoos?'
I just went thru this with my son back in June prior to him leaving for bootcamp. He has a sleeve on his arms with skulls in flames, they will ask them over and over if the tat's are gang related, or do they have religious connotations. My son had...

"CARRIER" a Documentary

A great documentary for every new recruit is one called. "CARRIER". It is the most informative you can possibly imagine. My son and I have been watching this series and found it to be even more informative then the information that his recruiter has been giving to him.

I would suggest all recruits watch this.. It gives you a realistic view of life on a Carrier.

Hi Ang,
It's great to hear from you. Yes, I've been very busy with work, but it does help me keep from thinking about missing Jacob as much. Jacob is due to graduate A-school on Dec. 14th and get to come home for a week. He's supposed to find out his orders sometime this week, so we are on pins and needles waiting to hear where he will be in January. His wife is hoping it will be on the east coast and we are too. Glad to hear that Chris is doing great in Japan. Jacob has duty Thanksgiving weekend. His wife wanted to go down there for Thanksgiving, but he told her not to because they wouldn't get much time to spend together. We can't wait for him to be home for Christmas!
I wish you blessings for Thanksgiving.
Friends,
Lisa

Every thing is going good for Jake. He is home on leave right now and then he reports to the USS George Washington on Dec 6th. He is no longer in Corpsman school. He concluded that he didn't have the stomach for the medical field. He is going to the fleet as a striker where he will find the job he wants. He is very excited about going to Japan.
Ahhh, school. It is a great experience. I am glad to see that you are doing it.
I will have a wonderful Thanksgiving and I hope that you do, too.
Take care,

Dawn

My daughter Katie is ont he USS Essex out of Sasebo. Whether she is in port or out to sea, I always send it the same address. Katie hasn't had any trouble getting it either way. When out to sea they get it at the next port of call or replenishment. Not sure if this helps or not. I always send packages in the APO/FPO Flat rate priority boxes and it takes about a week when they are in port.

Hi Ang, my son PIRd in May, then deployed in July. What is your son's name? What ship is he on? My son, Elliott wanted to be on an aircraft carrier, but that's not what he was assigned to, so we're both disappointed. I'm glad you wrote me.

Hi Ang, I have been hearing from my son via email to my cell phone. Last text was early Sunday am. I guess I will start to hear from him towards the end of the week. Yes I spoke to my son while he was still in Japan, but I purchased a calling card and called him on his phone there which is much cheaper than him calling me. Thanks for the email...(smile) Talk to you...

Oh ok...was wondering if they may already know each other. My son has met a few friends since being in... His bootcamp grad was May 8th and he went to Tech school in Pensacola, FL. I will definitely keep in touch! Thanks!

Hi Ang,
Norton, WV is in Randolph County. Mannington is in Marion County in north central WV about a half hour from Fairmont. It takes us about an hour to drive to West Virginia University. It might take an hour and a half to two hours to get to Norton. I'm just guessing on it. In what part of New York are you located? My step-son is in Afghanistan right now but is stationed at Ft. Drum in New York. His family is there now.
Take care.

Usually not. There is a lot of orientation that they go through in the ashore detachment. If the ship's in port, it still takes a couple of weeks, particularly for a "new" sailor. If the ship is deployed, then unless his assigned department really needs him, he usually will go through indoc and then be given jobs around the base until the ship comes back in. Particularly for a short deployment like this one will be. Some of the arrivals were flown out to the ship during the summer deployment, but that one lasted 3 - 4 months.
