I have a question maybe you can answer. I got a call from my daughter . She had Alergic reaction to something she ate. They took blood test waiting for results. She is so worried she going to be told she has to leave. Any comments would be appreciated
Elisha (Eli) is about halfway through Prototype. His grad date is currently 12/17/16. Hopefully 30 days off and then he will be deployed to an aircraft carrier that has yet to be determined.
Had fantastic Tiger Cruise and learned ton about the Navy as well as my son. Couldn't be prouder of him or more grateful for his service to our country.
I have joined the boot camp group and it has already made me feel better seeing some of the videos including the first one showing what they going through! When my son left I had feelings where I was thinking that I am a father and should be this emotional but I was. I was not ashamed but this led me to looking for pictures on the internet which was one link leading me to another with eventually led me here. I am very happy that I am here now and I am also very thankful to the members that have already made me feel welcome! Thank You!
Thank you for the reply Tom, my name is Raul Borrego from Corpus Christi,Tx. My son just left for boot camp on 8/09/2016. I am very proud of my son and look forward to attending his graduation on 09/30/16. Although it was tough to watch him go, I know it's what he wanted and he is looking forward to his future !!
Thanks for the Add Tom, yes I have my hands full but it is better than when they were six months old. I wouldn't do that part again if you paid me to! I looked and didn't see any groups specific to Divers, do you know of any?
Hello, Tom! Thank you, it's definitely not easy to let go. My son is doing well, he misses a lot of things from home but he is growing into an incredible young man. Thanks for the encouragement and please thank your son too for his service. JBB
Yes ect is all i knew. He has been in for 3 years now. So proud of him but i did not serve so following the ranks are not easy for me. lol. thank you so much for the great site
Thanks Tom, I look forward to exploring the site and learning more about the Navy. I have always had a fascination with the Navy and considered it when I enlisted but I just couldn't get around "All that water" thing...lol...so I joined the Army.
Thanks for the add. You might have mistaken me for a musician by the same name lol. My kid is 17 and thinking about joining the Navy. I got out in 1993 so it looks like things are a little different these days. I'm sure as much as things have change, they are still the same.

Thanks for the note. We are excited and somewhat with a "deer in the headlights look" as this is all new to us.

Thanks for the welcome Tom.
Just to confuse everyone, I go by my middle name-David, and my OCS son goes by his middle name-Tower. Tower's class is 01/17.
I read somewhere that photos of them doing their activities are available weekly. If that is true, how do I access them?

Thank you for the warm greeting, Tom. I'll take your advice and start with the Boot Camp group.
Correction! Please extend my thanks to your daughter! I have a friend from college whose son is wrapping things up on the Carl Vinson.
