Hi Ladies. I'm new to this group.. Just found it while searching in the groups. I've been on N4M's for about a month now.
My son left for boot camp on Oct 6th and is now just about at the halfway mark and will PIR on 12/02/2011. The first couple of weeks were very hard, but I received the first letters from him last Thursday (he sent 3 in one envelope!) and my first call from him yesterday. I got to talk to him for a whole 17 minutes!!!
I am married now for 7 years to a retired Navy Chief Petty Officer and I have two sons, 19 (in boot camp) and 16 (a sophomore in HS and in Naval JROTC). I also have two step daughters - one is married to a Air Force Boom Operator (living on McQuire AFB in NJ) and they have two beautiful daughters, age 1 and 3, and the other step daughter is single, graduating in December with her Masters degree. My husband, youngest son and myself live in Texas.
I'm looking forward to contributing in this group and hopefully making new friends along the way.

Congressional children should not get the same benefits as Military children. What do Congressmen and women do for society. They are a waste of space because they work for their own interests not the people. The major problem with Washington is that being in Congress has become a career, rather than a Service to our country. America needs to put a stop to this.

It is a very sad time. Reminds me that my Navy family is like my NYPD family. When the bad stuff happens, the circle tightens in support of the hurting and providing comfort to those who are trying to bring comfort! Thank you my Navy sisters. Couldn't survive without knowing you are all there.
@Katynorth, thank you for that list. I know my representatives won't be getting my support or my vote next November!! Gonna search out some much better candidates!

The news reported they were from the same team, but not the same seals. Doubt we will ever know for sure.

There are a lot of stories going around about the Navy Seals killed in Afganistan. One of them claims that the Seal team members killed last night are the very ones who killed Osoma Bin Ladin. I don't know how true that is, or if that is just a rumor. does anyone know?

Ruth, LOL. funny. I would be giving my dog a treat. (Lord forgive me for being so mean today)

No disrespect on this sad day, but if I don't post this now, I'll forget to do it.

Katynorth, thank you for posting those names for us.
I am very worried about the cuts involving our Military. Lets pray that we will all make it through the next year with Obama as President.

Mama Nonie,
I agree with the advice you gave your son.
I already have a 4 year degree but went back to college to update my skills and start a new career. I graduated a year ago and still not found a job in my profession. I think the economy is getting worse, not better.
