Comment by Dutchess on October 20, 2016 at 6:02pm: My daughter just arrived in Iwakuni, Japan as a Medical Laboratory Technician. Does anyone here have a loved one stationed there? She seems to be doing well and is excited to begin her career.

Comment by rog on June 7, 2016 at 4:48pm: My son, a navy corpsman, is graduating from SOCOM (Special Operations Command at 18D Fort Bragg - or Advanced medical training) and is assigned to 2nd Recon Battalion as a Force Recon Marine/Corpsman. His graduation is mid-July. This is pretty big deal, and am looking for a good gift idea. Any thoughts? When he graduated from Basic Recon Course, we got him an engraved knife with his name and date on it. He liked that. But that won't work again.... Any ideas would be helpful....
