I'm going shopping for a Navy Blue scarf! Wish I was talented like you Leilla. I think I'll wear a name tag to Sarge's and bring extras in case other people don't have any. The name tags will really help. How about we write our real name, N4M name and also Ship 09/Div 024? Should be able to recognize each other that way!

good idea since many of us only know each other by our screen name

I made these name tags for Sarge's M&G. They are 2x4 Avery stickers. I printed my own but I'll bring some pens and everyone else can write their name, N4M name, ship and division on the tag themselves. Is the logo OK? I figured since we are navy blue scarves our nametags should be navy blue! You know matching is important! teehee
Let me know about the logo. Thanks, Renee

Morning Ladies,
I received a call from my Sailor last night and he said that Ship 9-Div 24 made the highest score of all the divisions on Battle Stations! Isn't that fantastic?! So proud!
Just found my navy scarf yesterday. Trying to find warm clothes for Chicago as we are from Florida. 21 degrees is a little nippy. I guess I won't be bringing my flip flops!
8 days...Can't wait!
