Hi Susan! Your son is heading to Japan? What ship will he be serving on? The USS George Washington? My son Cody is in Yokosuka, he is a "green stripe" too, ABHAN. He loves Japan. If your son will be serving in the same work center as Cody, he could wind up being Cody's room-mate in the barracks! It is hard him being so far away but he is really enjoying Japan with his "brothers", they work hard! But it is good for them. At least they can't be accused of being lazy!

Hi Susan, Hope you had a great Holiday. We had an amazing week with Brian...very sad to see him go back. He did tell me that Sean will be going to Japan. It must be so difficult for them when they form these friendships...then they have to say goodbye. Brian is still waiting for his orders. He is the only one that has not got them yet..and he is very frustrated waiting for them. When will Sean be leaving and for how long. My prayers are with you. Nancy :)
