Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy career?
Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I...
Needed to learn more about it
The Navy offers opportunities that...
She made a great choice! She was scheduled to leave 8/17/2011, but after she turned 18 on may 22, they asked if she was ready to go in a moments notice she said YES &signed a form stating, as long as it was her same job...and well they went kidding, they called her tues 6/28 at 9am - she checked in to the hotel at 5:30 (we took her to dinner) she had final check in around 8pm and on June 29th we met her at meps to watch her officially become a NAVY girl....best quote was when the army officer said "Recuites enjoy your duty because while we get bug spray you get sunscreen!" we got the 1st 15sec call around 11pm (our time) she said, "Not hearing from me for 3 weeks is good that means Im not hurt..."shes so tough! i am so proud!
Our Navy experience so far...
It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.
Hi there! It was great meeting you and Britt (though it seems weird calling her that when Sam still refers to her as Jeffrey). I am glad the girls had eachother though boot camp. Sam said she got to hang out with her the other day when they were both off base. Hopefully they will stay in tough through their travels. They share a special time in their life that should be treasured.
I don't know about you; even though I am incredable proud I miss my baby like crazy! I have a 3 yr old at home but still feel the "empty nest". Can't wait for Christmas!
Take Care!!
OH if you have pics of Sam & Britt can you send to me? I would like to add to the scrap book & I putting together. Thanks!!!
