Hello Stockdale moms!  How are you all doing?  I am struggling through 1 day at a time.  This silent thing is really hard.

Comment by Bandmom on October 19, 2018 at 7:46am

Safe travels to all on the USS Stockdale.

Comment by Bandmom on October 15, 2018 at 9:04am

My sailor has been off ship since May, attending various A Schools.  Does anyone know if his address has changed?  He just returned to the ship late Friday Night, and with the deployment coming up, I wanted to get his birthday box mailed.  Can anyone help me?

Hello traefrank, and musicteachermom,  My son is an E.T has been off the ship most of the summer, as they have been sending him to more c-schools.  His first one was in San Diego, which he didn't mind.  His second one is in Norfolk ( which he doesn't like).  He will get done just in time to get to the ship for deployment.  So no leave.  Oh well, I guess it is a good thing that we visited him in July.

Just wanted to send a hello shout out. My son is on Stockdale as a fire controlman.
Sending them the best for the next upcoming deployment in October.

So happy to find others as well.  I had almost given up.  My son has been there since April.  He is an Electricians Mate.  We are visiting him the first week in August, right before they go underway again.
