To Madonna/Joe'sMOM- my husband works in the post office on the ship and he wanted me to let you know that if your son hasn't received his package yet that its not the ship post office...its the USPS. I myself have sent something out to someone on another ship about 2 months ago and they never got the package either. Hopefully your son will get it soon!

Hi Pat L D- I'm new to the group but my husband is on the Truman. I asked about the glasses and he said your son should go to medical on the ship and ask for an eye exam and from there he should be able to get them. Hope this helps!

I haven't been on here in quite some time, so I just want to make a short comment here by way of introduction. I'm a retired Navy chaplain. Yvonne and I have a "home away from home" for servicemen and women in our home on weekends. On Saturdays we get together for food fun and games. On Sundays we have a big home cooked meal after church and then we relax, watch Christian videos, have Bible studies where the guys and girls can ask questions and hopefully get some answers.
If your sons or daughters get orders to the Norfolk-Virginia Beach area and you think they might be interested in getting away from the base for a few hours, into a "real" home, with a real family, let them know about us. We'd love to invite them over. Send us a private message on here and we'll give you our contact information. We've had several Navyformoms' sailors to the house. Some Navyformoms have even visited!

My son is an E-2 pilot on the Truman. He just qualified and this will be his first mission in the fleet. He says the E-2 is the safest plane in the Navy. They just did a big upgrade on the plane but there were no safety improvements because it is already so safe. But of course nothing is perfect. Wonder why they only had 2 NFOs instead of the usual 3?

Thank you, I do know that I can not talk to anyone about it. I know I'm allowed to say an about time and tell people info after it happened.... I don't even tell my parents everything, lol. I just would like to know around how long he's going to be gone, so I can make plans. If it's going to be more then a couple of months I need to make plans to go some where, because I just moved here, and know no one. I have never heard of the FRG... what is that? He is the type of guy who talks very minimal about work, so I don't know very much, I'm in the dark about a lot of things.

Does anyone have a loved one leaving to go to the Truman in may? My husband is and I don't know how long he is going to be gone, he told me it was a deployment. He said there are cruises and there are deployments, one is 2 weeks and one is 6-8 months... I don't know which is which, and he doesn't like talking about the ship because he's never been before and he gets stressed about it. Can anyone help me out?
