Got an e-mail from Ryan. Says,"moving off the ship, can't e-mail from this address anymore", well what does that mean?? Is he going to a barracks on base or something?? That was not enough information for me...lol

Lynn, I don't know about an attempted abduction. But, the sailor in the car accident happened over a year ago. My son has been gone form P-Cola for a year.. Maybe that helps to how that it didn't go down all at once????

About me:
Mother of child aboard the USS George Washington in Yokosuka,Japan
I am here to support or represent my:
John Ryan
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I:
Was concerned or afraid, Was confused, Needed to learn more about it, Was proud
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
Saying goodbye hurts. However, he is excited and looking forward to an adventure. I had to accept his wishes and be happy for him too.
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
Our relationship has grown stronger, This was a maturing experience, The Navy has a lot to offer, This was the best decision he/she could have made

Hi there. Thank you for contacting me! You obviously have good taste, naming you son Ryan! (I'm a Ryan's Mom too!) We'll be saying our goodbyes this weekend and I don't think any of us are going to hold up very well. We've been lucky that he's been at school nearby so we've been able to spend every weekend together. I want to learn as much as I can about the what's and where's of the adventure that lays ahead for him. It's amazing how us Mom's can be so proud and excited for our sailors but so sad to say goodbye. Thank you for being supportive. Looking forward to getting to know you better. Sandy McD

Ginger, glad to hear Ryan is on the mend! They get really stressed out about not being 100%, don't they? The maturity is amazing for sure! Thank you, Navy! lol

Ginger, I hope you don't mind if I forwarded your post about your son's back pain to mine. He is a corpsman at the clinic on base at Atsugi and very into PT and fitness as well. I asked if he had any words of wisdom to share, so am waiting to hear back. I'll let you know!

Ginger, I've emailed my son to ask if he'd be interested in some ice hockey and am waiting for his response. If it's a yes I'll let you know and we can exchange their email address through a private message. :-) Thanks!!

Ginger, my son is at Atsugi, but most of his "crew" there are attached to the USS GW!! Small world, huh? He is, in fact, postponing his leave so he can be there for the month of September while the GW is back in port. That's friendship! ;-) I'll pass your info along to him, and thanks!!

Ginger,

I don't know who could possibly have there nose in my business and be in touch with Chris. It's a real mystery but I have nothing to hide that would upset him. Thanks for caring and thanks for being mad for me

Im not sure yet if that means that he will be at sea or not I asked him today. I know he is associated with the George Washington. He is an AO. How about your son.
