Hi! I'm new to Navy Dads.....but I just got my first letter from my son, at the end of his letter he wrote "I like g/g" or possibly "9/9"...(not the best printing) Does anyone know what that means?? Thanks for the reat site!!

I drove my son's car down to Norfolk yesterday, and spent time with Chris. I never said "Huh?" more than I did yesterday. It's like Greek AND Latin combined...

I agree with Ray, I think this will prove to be a very useful site. My son is new to the Navy and while I'm ex-military, I was Air Force and the majority of the acronyms and all the ranks and rates are "Greek" to me.

It's good to have one place for this, because there are times my son talks or texts me and I have no earthly idea what he's saying.
