From what I understand (mind you, all things are subject to change), next year is the Home for the Holidays year for the blue crew. I was told the switch took place every three years. Is it true? Only time will tell. Having a vacant place never gets…
Yeah, Kaye; I understand. Jason is "3 for 3" and he and Liz still have not had a Christmas, Anniversary or Valentine's Day together but they make the most of the days they are together. He is sooooo blessed to have a wife who goes out of her way to…
Hope all of you had a blessed Thanksgiving. Just wanted to drop a note and let you all know I am praying for you and yours. The holiday season seems to be the toughest on those are separated from loved ones. Whether your sailor is "in" or "out" this…
Good morning everyone. I got word that I may be getting a call by the end of the week (he's always good to call when he steps on dry land. We'll see. Do all of you have an active email address to send notes?
I know that proud feeling. That's awesome. Jason is also 3rd Class Petty Officer. He was really hoping the other two who were up for the promotion would get it. I am proud of all the guys and excited for them as well. Tell Nick
we are all proud of h…

Silverdale is beautiful. Mickey and I were able to go the 24-27 of April. The view is amazing and the colors are so vibrant. If you get a chance to go, don't pass it up. Jason seems to be more at ease about this trip underway. The guys seem to be mo…
I heard it was the cargo ship,the Maersk Alabama, which was initially hit by the pirates. It sails out of Norfolk Virginia from what I understand. The Navy ship used in the release was a warship based in San Diego from reports I have heard. Not much…

- Marla, Do you have the ombudsman's email address? because that one is even more important than the FRG group (in my humble opinion) Jena Aldridge is the ombudsman and she sends lots of info via email

Kaye S. said… - Hi Marla! I saw your post on "Roll Call..." My son, Drew, is on ALABAMA Blue as a MM3. Which crew is your guy on? If you'd like to be 'Friends,' send me an invite. (I don't send them out, just so folks don't feel compelled...) Hugs! k.

Jean C said… - hello! I love your comment 'He is doing what God wanted him to do'. jeff spent years in his MYF group doing Habitat for Humanity, which took him from SC; pa.; maine; ny, etc. Did it surprise me that he decided to go in the Navy to be a Seabee....absolutely not! he had been given the opportunity to discover what he really wanted to do with his life. Please tell your son hello from a navy Mom from R.I.

Yvonne said… - Thank you so much for the response. I asked my son if he knew "Bama" but my son says he only knows guys by their last names. I'm sure you get the same response of 'mommmm' how am I supposed to know everyone. Yes the Alabama was amazing. There was a little screw up with the Marines at the checkpoint at the Pier and my name wasn't on the list. I eventually got on but it took a little while. Nick is a MMFN. He's still qualifying. He was out on the Jackson on their last deployment. Wow first 'aways' are difficult especially for moms. LOL! Now I know more of what to expect. Look forward to talking to you more.

- When I heard “Navy,” I:
- Was proud and encouraged it
- From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
- We (dad and I) had already done all we could do. It was time to let him go with the understanding he is more God's than he is ours. If he was doing what God wanted him to do then God will guard him and lead him - and He has.
- Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
- It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.
