Ernie commented on E.G. - ND's Creator/Admin's group Navy Boot Camp"I did not get an address for at least a week after my son left for Boot camp.
When I went to Boot camp in 1980, I did not send my family an address for at least a week. Hang in there Buddy. As for SCE, Don't go away mad. Just go away."

- Ernie, “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 Dominick for his service to this great country from an old Vietnam Vet. Thank you for raising a fine young man.
Thank you for your service to this great country as well.

NavyDads Admin (Paul) said… - Welcome to NavyDads Ernie ! 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 Ernie this is a great place to brag about your sailor as well! So join in and let us know how Dominick is doing! And stop by the NavyDads offical store- Navyoutfitters.com. Show your support for NavyDads by wearing the latest in NavyDads attire.
And Ernie- thank you for your service to our great country. Best Regards- Paul

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 Dominick for his service for me and for yours as well. Thanks again for joining us.
Sincerely, EG
