"Shane I would go to Navy .mil for the most update on policy changes. I would think that your recruiters should have the most updated, but use the web site to double check"

Hi every1 I'm a single mom of 2 great guys 25 & 18
My oldest Kellen is on the USS Tucson (fast attack) sub in Pearl. I find myself back in school after being hurt( torn achilles) at work and losing 2 jobs. I love people and life. I'm in illinois right now but plan on moving on (hope someplace warm) I"m getting ready to have a second replacement on my achillies and after that watch out world. First thing I want to do is visit my son in Pearl.
I love water, bike riding, dancing, music music music, the theater, I'm only getting started in my life so much more in my life to try.

Sounds like me...I can function pretty well on about 6 hours of sleep. Drive safe tomorrow. I know what you mean though...world is smaller than we know! It was great to meet you today! I posted pictures from today in our Indiana group.

Hi Lauren, all you need is the ships address to send them anything. if any of you have that you schould not have to go through the ombudsman. I will try to find that info on my end because I know its hard to find sometimes.

Lauren your welcome. Yes, it's been busy. We took our Sailor to the airport at 4:00am this morning. Evan was home for a week and now he's back in SD. He is leaving again on another deployment so it'll be 7 months before we see him again. So I haven't been on the computer much this week. Also my wife's B'day is today. I'm not sure of what you mean by making a badge, that might be new to me too. I know we have a members badge but I'm not sure of one for the groups. If you can point me in the right direction or show me an example then I might be able to figure it out.

Hi lauren
At 8:48pm on April 27, 2009, Paul's Mom...Terri said…
Oh I hope he is on tiger cruise...that is so cool. I know that if I had the chance I would do a tiger cruise to see Paul. I really miss him. He is always so busy. He hardly has time to write. LOL...he should have been on a sub...I might hear from him more often. I miss you too my friend. I am so glad to see your post on N4M's. I really like the badge idea. Let me know what you find out. I may have a friend that knows how to do it.

cool!! What did they say? Can we post our fundraising stuff? I know that at N4M's how up tight they are. I don't think they are like that here but I so appreciate you asking. Thanks!

Lauren, “Welcome Aboard”. I am glad that you have joined us. We are here to support and encourage each other because we are all going through the same things. We love and support our sailors and we are interested in what they are going through and this is a place we can ask questions and get answers from those that have gone through it already. I have two sons and they are both in the military. My youngest joined the Air Force. My oldest joined the Navy and is stationed on the USS Abraham Lincoln CVN 72. Please thank Kellen for his service to this great country from an old Vietnam Vet. Thank you for raising a fine young man.
Terry
