Congratulations for your daughters accomplishments
A big shoutout to Heather! You must be so proud to see her shaping our future Sailors....BZ!!!!!
Congrats Richard I bet you are very proud. I graduated Aug 1978 GL co 106 Div 17 and got to attend a Navy graduation in 2014 and it was the best feeling to be able to go back so I am sure you are very proud to see your daughter back there after 8 years leading the charge. I got on here because my son and his friends all had joined. My son was sent home after a short time due to medical reasons and disclosures but I have kept on here hoping to maybe help with advice but I have found that so much has changed since I was in that I am very little help but I still like to read and hear about the Navy I was once in but will always be a part of. To have your daughter be there as and RDC has to be a really great moment, how proud you must be. Tell her congrats from an "Old Salt Squid". God Bless
Bravo Zulu! Much to be proud of with Heather! Blessings from the Pacific Island of Guam.

Big PIR this Friday dude! We'll be watching Heather!
that's great! re: video....assume yo have in digital...go to VIDEOS and you'll see an option to ADD and then upload
Sorry I missed ya bud....hope all is well and glad to see you still on the site!
Play the following video for a brief introduction to NavyDads.com
When my son first enlisted in the Navy I found NavyForMoms in searching for answers to his future. I just knew their had to be a site for dads but found out 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 hope this site will benefit fathers that follow 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 daughters journey in the Navy. Thank Heather for her service for me and thanks again for joining us.
Sincerely, E.G.
