Thanks a bunch! I've got more than a boxful right now, so I'm trying to decide what they like best. I've got my son's girlfriend on the Pickney and my son on the Bunker Hill. I woul dnever have thought of tape!!! Great idea. And the prepaid flat rate box. My son likes sour gummy worms the best AND jerky. Now to write a letter and get the package on its way.

Stationary, stamps, individual powdered drink packets, travel mug, magazines, handwritten letters, chips and individual cups of salsa, candy, microwave popcorn, chap stick, nuts, sunflower seeds, pictures of people from home, recordable book where everyone back home reads a page, tape so they can hang their treasured pictures in their rack, camera, phone card, prepaid flat rate boxes so they can send their liberty purchases back home.

Haha, I asked you earlier in my email if you wanted Tracy's number and I see now that  you have it had already put it up here!

Thank goodness you cleared that up! lol You had me so confused! Shame on me for assuming the sailor was a man instead of a woman! I don't know what ombudsman or DIL are, though...I talked to Tracy in San Diego if that helps.

Clockard, see if your son can ask where the schedule is onboard. My son says they are pretty much right on schedule according to the list of dates and ports. I also talked with Navy Commodore here and he said the ships are usually right on schedule to the day, and if they are off by some chance, it is only by one day later. Unless a world emergency calls them off schedule...

I know the exact date (unless something huge comes up) and have made reservations for lodging and air flights, but of course, I can't say it here. I do have a contact person's name and number for the ship. Her husband is an officer onboard, I believe, but she is in CA and she is very nice. Call the base in San Diego and ask for her name and number. She may take a few days to respond to your question, but she does get back to you. She didn't give me the date, but I hinted by including the number in a different question and she said yes.
