Michele said… Welcome to Navy Dads, EM3 Espada!
My son is active-duty, stationed in San Diego aboard a guided-missile cruiser under the USS Stennis strike group. I am proud of his desire to serve, and strive to encourage him and support him, on good days and also on those days when he crosses paths with those who aren't as interested in providing him with good mentoring and leadership skills. It is good to have active-duty here on the site to give the members an inside, objective perspective.
My sincere thanks to you, Isaac and Michael for your dedication and service to our great country, protecting and defending its freedoms and liberties. Everyone here supports you, and we are available at any time to offer that support... God Bless you and your own families for the sacrifices you all make for all of us.
With sincere gratitude, Michele

So please, jump right in and make this site your own. We love our Sailors on here! They have been a big help to us parents and we hope to them as well.

When I joined I knew nothing about the Military and this site has really helped me understand what to expect and has relieved some of the worries I had. Please go to the Groups Page and check out of the different Group and join in to learn more about what your Guy or Girl will be learning and doing. We are a big family here and you can find answers to most any question you may had regarding what is in store for your recruit. You will find others that are new to the Navy along with those that have Loved Ones that has been in for some time. We like to hear about your recruit the good times, the concerns and the question.

- Welcome aboard EM3 Espada.
I would like to take this time to point you in some of the right directions. For starters if you haven't had the time take a look at the right side of any page you click on. There you will find some useful information for you. The links under the about this site will help you with how this site got started, navigation, PIR, About us, community guidelines and some links to some of the groups that beginners with a lot of questions will find very useful.
First and foremost though we are all here for the same reason. We are curious about what our young sailors are getting into and for more information about the rate or job that they will be doing for the next 4-6 yrs of their lives. I know when I first got here I had lots of questions and there was not a lot of people on this site but they all were either going through the same thing or had been through it and had sailors out in the fleet. Now this site has grown to over 2000 members, Dads, Moms,Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, sisters, brothers,girlfriends and boyfriends. Don't be afraid to ask questions of members in here because somewhere along the way we have all had the same questions and asked . There are a lot of knowledgeable people on this site with various years of experience in the NAVY either on their own account or through their Sailors.
Again welcome aboard and BRAVO ZULU to you, your Husband and your Brother on your enlistments and please thank them for me for making the choice to defend the freedoms that my family, this country and I have and enjoy.
