I think I will try to set my son up with all the available US girls I can while he is home on leave. I don't know what I would do if he fell for a Japanese woman and I had to say goodbye to him permanently.

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!!
