When I heard “Navy,” I:
Needed to learn more about it
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
The military surely makes a person stronger and more independent. Change brings more challenges and responsibilities everyday.
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

Hi wanted to let you know you can get a Blue Star Flag free from Grantham University. Go to there website and there is a spot to click on for the free flag. It takes about 12 weeks to get it. That is where I got mine and it looks real nice. I have it displayed in my front window. I also googled blue star pins and bought my blue star pin from a website that came up. I think it was just called Blue star mothers. But if you google it you can find it I'm sure. I hope this helps you. Best Wishes!
