Profile Information
- About me:
- I am a mother of two: Sid is 18 years old and began Navy training on August 8, 2008 and Vivienne is 18 months old and is an adorable chubby little girl that misses her big brother. I have been absolutely sick since Sid left for Great Lakes, in the past 18 years not a day has gone by that I haven't talked to him.
- I am here to support or represent my:
- Sid
- Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
- Enlisted
- When I heard “Navy,” I:
- Was concerned or afraid, Was confused, Needed to learn more about it, Said “No way!”
- From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
- I never thought I would step foot into a recruiting office. I am as liberal as is possibly possible. My son has been raised in a vegetarian, ultra left-wing home, so I was very shocked when he said he wanted to join the military but I learned that there are many benefits for him and I will always support my son, no matter what.

Take care and get back to us. God Bless and take care. Anita Adair/Angela " ADAIR" mom.
What is Sid's last name? I know they all go by last names only, I doubt if they even know each other's first names I want to write to Jared about Sid.
Yes, I would love to just get a video of all these guys folding laundry, making beds and cleaning bathrooms. I have tried to get him to do that for 18 YEARS!! ha, ha... I am excited to see the changes in Jared, and am scared at the same time. He so definitely needed to get out of the high school jock, party stage, So I am sure he has lost a little of the "chip" by now. By the sounds of Jared's letter, he still has his sense of humor even at BC! He stared his letter... This is Seaman Recruit Adams, Div 369, (but you can just call me Jared). That was encouraging that he still had a little humor on the 5th day of BC.
Well, I pray for our "boys" everyday. I know the Lord is watching over them. They are in good hands. I have complete faith that they are doing great. Don't get me wrong I still cry when I miss him, but they are going to be fine!! I would be more afraid sending Jared to a college campus at this point, (he has a little wild streak in him
Well, take care of yourself! I will be waiting by the phone to hear my son's voice!! I guess I can just keep calling his cell phone and listen to the message, ( I have only done that twice so far), I was desperate! Blessings to you and Sid, Christy
