Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy career?
Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I...
Was proud and encouraged it
The Navy offers opportunities that...
The recruiters for the Navy were honest/classy/respectable men who were always there for my son!
Our Navy experience so far...
It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.
Hi There Trashline27- I'm sorry your hurting tonight. The absence of contact is really tough. When that first letter comes it is like reassurance that he didn't just fall off the edge of the earth. I thought A. wouldn't write because he hates it, but he has turned into a writing fool! (As much as time allows!) And he really misses and appreciates our love, support and letters. Hang in there. Your time will come, and you'll feel better. Wish there was more I could say or do for you.

Hi, Theresa. I'm sure our boys have met before. I got a letter saying they were in Hell Week also, but they will do great I'm sure! Oh, I am most certainly going to be at graduation. Nothing will stop me! :) I'm addicted to this site as well.
Hi Theresa, I'm so glad to hear of someone that has a son in Div 214! Our son's name is AJ. It's actually Andrew James but we've always called him AJ. He is 20 yrs old and is our middle child of three. We havea son who just turned 28 and a daughter who will be graduating HS next week. We are getting really excited about coming for PIR. We are in MN and are going to be driving. It is about a 7-8 hour trip. Have you booked a hotel yet? We missed AJ's call last Thursday, but he sounded really good. I hope we can meet up in GL.
