Just wanted to Say hello to all and see just where the rest of the division is with their Navy path seeing as it's going to be 4 years since boot camp. Ian is done in Feb 2015 with being in the service. He has decided to look into becoming a radiologist tech. Our youngest just enlisted last month and leaves for Boot Camp on Sept 10. he's in for 6 years! so my navy mom ride continues. Hugs and prayers to all of you. Hope each of your family member's are doing well.
Hello All! wanted to say Hello adn see how all of you are doing now that most of us have hit the 2 our of 4 enlisted mark. Please share what the past two have held for you and what appears to be in the future. How are they all doing?
Well Hello ALL! As I sit here today and look at the calendar a train hit me. this time last year we were awaiting the I"M a Sailor Call! and heading to PIR.
God Bless those who made it all the way thru with our 930 Div and those who attempted but had hard hurdles but gave it shot anyway. I thank all of the members of the 930 those who were there the day the division was formed and those who shared PIR with my son. As the one year mark approaches It would be nice to hear how your recruit is doing.
My son is in transition to go to Afghanistan this Aug.
He's currently in Columbia SC. Prayers to all my 930 momma friends.
God Bless them on all!
