My son got delayed to March 14th. Orig date was Dec 14th. He is special forces, and we live in Aurora, is there anyone else in the area? He has one friend that comes over who is contracted for SEALS, but won't have a date until February. Would love to meet other families in the area, also anyone in Special Forces.

If anybody knows of sailors in the Metro area that need to be adopted for Thanksgiving - we will be happy to open our home for 8-10. Let me know.

This made me cry. How beautiful to remember our fallen/missing Sailors this way. Too many politics want it all swept under a rug, nice & tidy, and we can't let that happen. God bless our Navy, and all our Sailors.

Since the Navy Day Ball was yesterday, I thought I would share this with you guys...
(Happy 236th birthday U.S. Navy)
The POW/MIA Table(This ceremony was part of the Navy Ball, I really liked it and so I am sharing it with you)
You may notice this small table here in a place of honor. It is set for one. This table is our way of symbolizing that members of our profession of arms are missing from our midst. They are commonly call P.O.W.'s or M.I.A.'s, we call them brothers.
They are unable to be with us this evening and so we remember them.
This table set for one is small... it symbolizes the frailty of one prisoner against his oppressors.
The table cloth is white... it symbolizes the purity of their intentions to respond to their country's call to arms.
The single rose displayed in a vase reminds us of the families and loved ones of our comrades in arms who keep faith awaiting their return.
The yellow ribbon tied so prominently on the vase is reminiscent of the yellow ribbon worn on the lapel and breasts of thousands who bear witness to their unyielding determination to demand a proper accounting for our missing.
A slice of lemon is on the bread plate... to remind us of their bitter fate.
There is salt upon the bread plate... symbolic of the family's tears as they wait.
The glass is inverted... they cannot toast with us tonight.
The chair is empty... they are not here.
Remember... all of you who served with them and called them comrades, who depended on their might and aid, and relied on them... for surely... they have not forsaken you.
