Happy thanksgiving everyone. For those of you who will have time with your sailor's please give them an extra hug from those of us that won't - and please tell them thank you - and my most heartfelt thanks to you for your service as well.
Welcome NF Mom
Glad to hear the great news Vicky!!!
Good news: Chrissy will be moving to a new ship soon and NOT going to Spain. She will be staying in Virigina. Happy Dance!
thank you just requested to join
I can't find it :(
Good morning, I am so glad that your sailors can help in this important relief effort. God Bless them.
Robyn....I won't be surprised if it won't be several days until you hear something from you DS. When they go into these relief stations, it is all out work and work hard.
Just know that when they have time they will contact you, remember all the services the ship has to offer will be deverted to rescue operations.
Anyone with a love on on board any of the ship being deployed to the Philippines with be working long hard days trying to help these much needed people.
barnsyard....The support the ship will provide will be humanitarian. They will fly in much needed supplies to remote areas. They will call for volunteers to go out and work in areas: clearing roads, helping with distribution of supplies and water, helping construction crews with repairs to communities and much much more.
I know from the past the sailors will take all their extra clothes and pass them out to the citizens who need them along with any extra food thet have in their own storage. Our sailors are the best!
