Hello Moms,
My name is Jackie. My daughter is aboard the Sherman. I haven't been on here for a while but I am back. What do your kids do aboard ship?
For families and friends of
Sailors who are stationed at Norfolk;
for either Sea Duty or
Shore Duty Sailors. Just make sure to keep OPSEC issues in mind and not disclose
ship movements in advance.
Moms of Sailors serving on a destroyer

Profile Information
- About me:
- I am a 47 yo mother of "6". 3 of my children are in the Military and I am probably the proudest Mom there is. I am also a Disabled Peace-time Veteran of the Navy. I was a Navy Corpsman.. My husband is a former National Guard Tank Driver. So I guess you could say that we are a "Military Family" I have a daughter in the Navy and 2 sons in the Army Reserves, 1 of them in Baghdad right now. The other will be going to boot camp on July 7th (the day after his 18th Birthday).
- I am here to support or represent my:
- Child/Stepchild
- Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
- Enlisted
- When I heard “Navy,” I:
- Was proud and encouraged it
- From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
- As a Veteran myself I learned that you have a choice to make about your Duty Station.....It will be what YOU make of it. If you want it to be a good one ..IT WILL BE!!! On the other hand if you want it to be a BAD one...it will be that too.
- Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
- It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

- Hey Jackie: Just saw that you have joined our group for the Forrest Sherman. Welcome! I happen to be in Virginia for a couple of weeks at the moment & had the chance to see "our ship" at the pier yesterday afternoon. Where are you located?
