Nancy, I feel the same way. Not sure if Alex will come home the same days from CT as he was given in GL. I guess anxiety is getting the best of him. He really wants to be home for the holidays.

Lynn, tell Geoff to go with printed receipts to the travel office on base and ask them to help him get the refund. The airlies usually yield to the military. It is worth the try.

Nancy tell Aaron to get his tickets home from the travel office on base. They will be cheaper than anything they can get on their own (or even us). If Alex leaves with Aaron, his brother told him to print out the tickets he purchased had have the tr…

Ruth Ann, Alex had his graduation picture taken with bcg's but has been wearing the glasses he brought from home. Maybe you can get a copy of his last prescription and send it to him, or order contacts and send them. I am sure they will allow that n…

two words...Waterproof Mascara. It was very emotional, cold and a bit frustrating. Had to wait til around 2:30 for him. He had to transfer ships. But it was wonderful. Now counting down the days for his holiday visit.

Hi Grace, welcome to Navy for Mom's:)) You will find a lot of answers, support and encouragement here. My daughter, Ashley (20), has been in the Navy since July 2007 and is an IT3 & my son Tim (19) has been in since Feb 2008 stationed on the USS Nimitz.. What will your son/daughter be doing with the Navy? If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I'm glad you joined and look forward to hearing more about you & your recruit. Pat
