    Troopers Dad, Welcome Aboard!

    My son is an ABE aboard the USS Ronald Reagan in San Diego, Ca. and my family and I couldn't be prouder of him. When he first enlisted I found NavyForMoms in searching for answers to my son's future. I just knew their had to be a site for dads like n4m's but I was wrong. So I started this site so us dads would also have a place to call home. I'm new at this and I hope this site will benefit fathers that come behind us. So jump right in share concerns, join groups, share info, and show off your Sailor. I'm so glad to find out their are so many proud Navy Dads just like myself. I hope this site benefits you and your family throughout your sons journey in the Navy. Thank your son for his service for me and thanks again for joining us.

    Sincerely, EG

    Hello Trooper Dad,

    Thanks for friending me. This is my second attempt to respond, I don't think I actually got the first message sent (forgive me if I did).

    Our son shipped for Coronado 2.5 weeks ago and is one week away from phase one. He is excited and confident. We are concerned as they seem to have an extremely large group this time, and need to get the numbers down.

    I am sorry to hear your son had a medical issue. Great Lakes seems to breed them during the winter. We know a young man still there who hurt his shoulder. We have our fingers crossed they don't just drop him as a result; he is another special young man.

    As to Coronado, we get bits and pieces from our son, mostly on weekends. He is just too busy to communicate (other than an occasional txt message) during the week. He did manage to acquire a bicycle so he can get off the base on weekends; guessing that is very positive.

    Please keep us informed as to your son's progress. Regards, Mark
