    Jim, Welcome Aboard! 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 yours as well. Thanks again for joining us. Sincerely, EG

    Welcome to NavyDads Jim! I'm sure you'll find the site as fun and useful as I have. Explore and make some friends, add your comments to a discussion or two, read the postings in the various groups-- even start one or two. I have! If you have any questions or concerns about your sailor and what he is going through...ask! I'm sure someone here will have the answer or can point you in the right direction to find out. I'm lucky enough to have two sailors- my son Eric is on the second half of a seven-month cruise on the carrier Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) and my daughter Kat recently returned from a seven-month cruise on the carrier Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72). And Jim, this is a great place to brag about your sailor as well! So join in and let us know how Chris is doing! And Jim- thank you for your service to our great country!Best Regards- Paul

    First spent just short of 5 years as an army grunt (72-77),then.........did 5 years with a small rural dept. and left as a Sgt., finished up 23 yrs working for local school district as a police officer............politics and a management changed wiped out the unit (needed 7 years for full retirement). Now days I work weekends supervising a couple of clowns playing at being security officers and looking to get back to work somewhere without hearing the word "over qualified"....LOL
