My son used to be on the Reagan, he says he is glad they are there to help and that the people of Japan are in good hands. He has fond memories of helping out after typhoons hit the islands over there.

I went to PIR three years ago and on one toll booth I had to over pay because I did not know that there was a toll booth every two miles up there...Momma could be exaggerating...but that is the same as not paying at all. They sent me a bill and I…

AWESOME Crystal!!!!! Give him our best and tell him we 'Thank him for his service" it is not easy in today's environment. We wish him all the best.

This is great! I can't read all of these posts, it is late...but, I am on other forums and frequently mention both. Can we become a fan on Facebook/MySpace?

Yes, our prayers are with Chief's family. My son said he did not have to be in the hot zone, but, that was the kind of guy he was. I also heard he was very hands on, a great Chief and very involved with his men who admired and respected him.…

Good Mornin' Sunshine, wake-up Buttercup!
I am in San Diego and we only get about 6" to 8" a YEAR! The last storm netted less than 4" inches total from the four storms in most places and it was a torrential down-pour...for us.…

Crystal reminded me I did not update you all...DC son will be Medically Retired because 'taking anti-seizure medication is not consistent with being in the military." It is so weird because there is NO history of seizures on either side of…
Profile Information
- My Sailor's first name (do not post SEAL names):
- Jason
- What is or will be your sailor's rate (job classification) - ex. ABE, AM, GM, etc
- DC
- Describe a little about yourself:
- Proud parent of a brave sailor. Unfortunately my son will be medically retired by July 2010. He experienced one seizure while serving aboard an air craft carrier. Neurologist says anti-seizure medication is not consistent with military service. So, he has to give up his dream job that was the reason for keeping his nose clean all through his teen years. But, he is looking forward to the future and all of the options open to him.
I am a small business owner, www.dailyfooddiary.net where I sell my line of health diaries. And, I am looking forward to a recovered economy! Hope springs eternal.
God bless our military and I thank them all for their service and to all family and friends of our military my eternal gratitude for your support of our military men and women.
- What brought you to this site:
- My son is currently serving
- What were your feelings when your Sailor joined the Navy:
- On 9-11 he made his decision at age 12...he reached his goal! A goal he set nine years prior to boot camp and kept his nose clean all those years. As a mom, it doesn't get much better than that! UPDATE: He had a seizure aboard ship and he is being tested by neurology, but, will probably get a medical discharge. Thank the Lord we are in the same city. It is extremely life altering and heartbreaking. DS is handling it way better (and with more bravery) than me. God bless him...

NavyDads Co-Admin, Jim said… - HI! I'm so glad you came here. I know this is a site created for dads, but all are welcome! I'm glad I had a chance to tell you about Navy Dads. I talk about this site to any one who will listen! I have the distinct honor of being the first dad, apart from the creator's family, to join this site. I am sure that you are very proud of your son. Deciding to enlist when he was 12! I'm so glad he chose the Navy.

- Welcome to NavyDads NavyDCparent! 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 NavyDCparent this is a great place to brag about your sailor as well! So join in and let us know how Jace 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

Navydads co-admin (Terry) said… - NavyDCparent, “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 Jace for his service to this great country from an old Vietnam Vet. Thank you for raising a fine young man.

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. We have many moms on the site and benefit greatly from their point of views and we are willing to help the moms in any way we can. So jump right in share concerns, join groups, share info, and show off your Sailor. I hope this site benefits you and your family throughout your sons journey in the Navy. Thank Jace for his service for me and thanks again for joining us.
Sincerely, EG
