Nathansmom-- Hi, i just want to let you know that there is another mom with a son in your div. ( actually a couple). They dont comment that much on the boards, but they seem very nice. Friendly. One is from Hawaii and only keeps in contact thru PM. She is very nervous about coming to the states. She was heartbroken over her son being gone but now that she has heard from him, she feels much better. (just like the rest of us). Im thinking that since they arent on much, ( i think they do FB), that they havent seen your discussion. Just wanted to let you know that you are not the only one.:)))) And the other has just joined recently.
If they ask, do you want me to give them your screenname? I dont give screennames out, just in case the others dont want contacted, that is why i am asking. I havent mentioned your name to them yet.

Sure don't seem like there is many of us on here. I am glad to hear from you. Our son's job changed so many times before he left, but I think the one they settled on was where he would be working on the ships engine???? or something like that. Will you be going to PIR? if so will you be going to the M&G at the Ramada on the thursday before PIR?

brothers graduation. I am glad to see there are others from this ship and Division. Both my sons are MA's.

potsie lee- Hello, and thank you for letting me know. Please do give them my screenname, It would just be nice to contact someone in our division. I wish I could contact the mom from Hawaii, maybey chatting with someone will ease her a little. I know we are all exited about PIR and seeing our sailor...My son called last week and I know that made a world of diference in how I felt and how worried about him being at GL.
Again, Thank you.

I also agree if there were contact with the mom from Hawaii would ease her travel.

And I thought it was rough loosing one son one year and the other the next, but having them both leave within 3 months of of each other has to be super tough. Prayers are with you. and yes, very proud of my Sailors.
