We do, our smiles- our hugs and our love - one for each other.It doesn't matter when or where,or even if we stand together, each of us knows that thelove is there and it is always there.

Bruce replied to Scott S's discussion Ballston Spa in the group Nukes"It has been my experience that they try to do everything they can to help the students succeed.

Bruce commented on Leonard's group Submariners"Hi Ctyankee - Funny how all kids seem to be the same - our GPS was enroute for a while as well. One of the pieces that made me feel comfortable, but frustrated my son, was that their seemed to be several people watching each others back when he…"

Bruce replied to Cora's discussion Shipping Personal Vehicles Overseas"That is what my son did as well when he went to Japan. He bought one from a departing sailor and then gave it to another sailor when he headed home."

Navydads co-admin (Terry) said… - Bruce, “Welcome Aboard”. I am glad that you have joined us. This site is for you to use and enjoy. We love to talk about our sailors around here and we have been known to brag on them a little. We are also here to support and encourage each other. After all we are all in this together. I have two sons and they are both in the military. My youngest joined the Air Force 5 years ago. My oldest joined the Navy and is stationed on the USS Abraham Lincoln CVN 72. Please thank Joel and Keith for their service to this great country from an old Vietnam Vet. Thank you for raising fine young men.

- Bruce, love your logo! Go Gren Bay! I grew up in Wis. Green and Gold in the blood forever. Good to see them start off right last night.
My son is an AW/Rescue Swimmer on the USS George Washington. I hope all is well with your step sons.

My son is an ABE aboard the USS Ronald Reagan in San Diego, Ca. and my family and I couldn't be prouder of him. When he first enlisted I found NavyForMoms in searching for answers to my son's future. I just knew their had to be a site for dads like n4m's but I was wrong. So I started this site so us dads would also have a place to call home. I'm new at this and I hope this site will benefit fathers that come behind us. So jump right in share concerns, join groups, share info, and show off your Sailor. I'm so glad to find out their are so many proud Navy Dads just like myself. I hope this site benefits you and your family throughout your sons journey in the Navy. Thank Joel & Keith for their service for me and thanks again for joining us.
Sincerely, EG

NavyDads Admin (Paul) said… - Welcome to NavyDads Bruce! I'm sure you'll find the site as fun and useful as I have. Explore and make some friends, add your comments to a discussion or two, read the postings in the various groups-- even start one or two. I have! If you have any questions or concerns about your sailor and what he is going through...ask! I'm sure someone here will have the answer or can point you in the right direction to find out. I'm lucky enough to have two sailors- my son Eric just returned from a seven-month cruise on the carrier Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) and my daughter Kat returned last fall from a seven-month cruise on the carrier Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72). And Bruce this is a great place to brag about your sailor as well! So join in and let us know how your son is doing! And stop by the NavyDads offical store- Navyoutfitters.com. Show your support for NavyDads by wearing the latest in NavyDads attire. Best Regards- Paul
