So hard to believe it has almost a year. My son went to A school in GL. He finished OS A school in February and in March he went to Norfolk VA. On March 26 he was deployed on the USS Iwo Jima. This has been a long 8 months, but he is coming home. He will be arriving back in VA the week after Thanksgiving, so I am flying to Norfolk to welcome him home along with all the other sailors and marines that were deployed with him.
October 25. A date I will never forget. Our son arrived at bootcamp that day. He is doing well and stationed in Norfolk. He is temporarily stationed in Pascagoula, MS as his ship is almost finished being built there. He is assigned to one of the 9/11 ships (there are 3). He loves the Navy and it is a good fit for him. He is a 3rd class petty officer. It has been a long and interesting ride for us as parents. We have visited him in Great Lakes during A school and we have visited him in Pascagoula, MS. We rode our motorcycle to MS from MI and had a wonderful 10 days. I hope all of you are doing well and your sailors too!
Hello Navy Moms, family and friends. Next month will be ONE YEAR that our loved ones will be in the Navy. So hard to believe!
Checking in to see where your Sailors are and how they are doing?!!
My son is in C-School. Observing in the OR...in local, civilian hospitals. Graduation is end of October and then he will get his first command. No clue where or how long he will be in "holding".
Repsond when y'all can. Looking forward to reading how our young men and women are today.
Hello Everyone. Wow, I haven't been on here in a long time! Doesn't seem like it's been that long since PIR 12/29 but it's been almost half a year. Time really flies. My youngest son just left yesterday for Army Basic Training. Which is what brings me here this evening. Does anyone know of a site similar to this one for Army moms? Thanks, hope all is well.
Yes she got her orders this Monday...We are very excited she will be in San Diego which is about and hour & 1/2 away from home. My parents live very close to the base, so she will be close to her grandparents which is nice because she is very close with them...Does your son know my daughter?
@natalie'smom-my son is in the same EN class as your daughter. Did she get her orders?
@ natatlie'smom-our son will graduate from BECC next Monday I think...then the EN strand class. Maybe our kids will be in that one together?? Our son's BECC class doesn't have any women in it. Did your daughter get her orders? Our son is going to the USS Arlington 24 LPD. It will be based in Norfolk. Our son really wanted to be based in Washington State however...his Dad and Grandpa were both based in Norfolk. What will be...will be!
