Hi Janet, welcome to the group! Lots of tears are shed here, that is normal. I was very worried that my son would change too much. Somehow, the best of him has been amplified and the not so great is no longer there. He went to bootcamp last May, A s…

Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?

When I heard “Navy,” I:
Was concerned or afraid
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
My son just graduated from boot camp, so this is still all new to me. I returned home from Great Lakes last night, very impressed with the positive changes in his demeanor. However, as a single mom I will need some tips on how to visit with him in Pensacola for A school that I can afford. Are there any airlines that give military family member discounts, or rental car companies? I know about the Navy Lodge.
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

Hello,
I was wondering if you son could touch base with my son on the USS Abraham Lincoln. He arrived this summer there and still is learning the ropes. It would be nice to know as many people as possible there. I am not sure if I should give out my son's on this site. If you think your son wouldn't mind. Shea just turned 20 and I know he would appreciate the friendship and teaming. I raised my son alone for years. I understand how it is when they move all over. Let me know how to give out the email or phone number. Thanks Linda

My e-mail is coocoojohnson@aol.com. He called last night and said that he will be going to the base hospital in Atsugi for a diagnosis. Maybe they are taking him seriously. He slao said that he will get some PT. That is all I want is for him to be taken seriously and get some help. Thank You
