Some of you might know that on July 16th, I lost my sailor. He was found dead at his Command. The only thing that the Navy is telling us is that the matter is under investigation. And on Friday the 30th of July we are going to be laying him to rest.

Spoke with Val this Sunday, she just came back from Bethesma hospital as they are trying to find out about why she has intense pains in stomac area. They thought they would need to operate on a possible hernia but determined it wasn't that. She had a concussion earlier when carried in firemans carry and knocked heads with another girl being carried. Also, almost broke her arm breaking a fall during night ops, turned out as only sever bruise. All that and she was still ranked 3rd overall in her platoon before going to the hospital. She is worried that the Lt. duty required by the doctors will have her miss too much to stay in, and she would be sent home again for the second time. I hope not since she got the favorable rating during the XO for platoon earlier and she has tried so hard over the past two years to be a Marine officer. Please pray for her body to be healed and that God Allow her to serve if it is in His will.

Welcome everybody I have been away looking for Dorthy and Toto for the last few weeks. I now have a Sgt of the Marines and a MM3 in the Navy. The Marine has asked me not to talk about what he does any more in open forums, said if I was a grunt it would be OK but I am not.

Well I am almost in the same boat as you Ladies and Gentlemen so I am going to go ahead and join this group. I have a son that is an ET3 Satellite Coms. with the FFG-46. My other son as I write is up at the hotel awaiting his chance to take his physical and some tests then he will find out his ship date. His recruiter says that it looks kind of like he might get a ship date sometime in July 2011 after graduation.

Hello, my son is an AW/Rescue Swimmer with HS-14 stationed at Atsugi Naval Airbase in Japan. He rotates serving on the CVN73 George Washington carrier, as well as now with Det A waiting for the USS Cowpens or the USS Shiloh to come out of repair to go on summer tour. My daughter is currently at the Marines officer candidate school (OCS) in Quantico to join here new husband that just got commissioned 2nd LT. in the Marines. So I guess through marriage I have three!
