Comment by David Tovey on September 7, 2011 at 5:12am: Victor,

My wife and I are going to Camp Pendleton to see our son graduate FMTB on the 30th as well. I agree the details of this are sketchy, but our son said that he will let us know as soon as he knows. I believe the ceremony begins at 9:00 am, and he said that the guards at the gate will know where to direct you when you first enter the base. I will let you know as soon as I know any more details. He is not FMF either.

Comment by Dany Clark on September 2, 2011 at 9:32pm: My son, Tim, just finished his C school as a Surgery Tech. He graduated 3rd and drew Hawaii as his next duty station. He reported in last Thursday and says it is beautiful. I guess the wife and I have an excuse for a Hawaiian vacation now.

Comment by David Tovey on August 24, 2011 at 6:59am: Bought plane tickets for FMTB graduation. Can't wait to see him. We got some pictures of him and he looks fantastic. I posted one on the pictures on the photo player on the main page. He's the one posing in front of Devil Doc Hall. I'm looking forward to this trip, since I've never been to California before. He was happy to hear we are coming too.

Comment by NavyDads Admin (Paul) on August 18, 2011 at 9:39pm: Check out this video of a Navy Corpsman from Naval Hospital Oak Harbor and the Whidbey Island Navy search and rescue team saving an injured hiker who was hurt in Washington State!

Comment by Randall Kendall on August 12, 2011 at 9:07am: Sounds like he's in the thick of it for sure,it will improve and he will

change a lot as he moves thru the school.

Remind him it can be done, and it will end.....hard to see sometimes.

Keep the letters going to him , it is a great help.
