Well my son Nick shipped out yesterday to bootcamp at Great Lakes Ill. Bitter sweet, now I know how my mom felt when I left back in '87. He's going to do great, I know. He is a lot better prepared than I was. So very proud! I know the Navy is a little strong today! I pray the Lord to give him strength, courage and confidence. Love you son, your always in my heart.

Comment by Skip Daugherty on January 20, 2013 at 11:19am Hey Chip, my son Brad left on January 8th also. And like you I realized how my parents felt when I did it back in '83. I know he was way more prepared than I was with all of the available information on the Internet and since I was a recruiter myself for 4 years I was able to help out some. I'm sure they will do well. Take Care.
Comment by Robert Hunter Dovel on January 20, 2013 at 5:04am Nick will do great, it go's by so quick. My son has been in for 7 yrs and still likes it. At first he wasn't sure, but it got easier as time went. I wish him well, and hope he has a great career.
