Hey Jon, It was great getting to meet and hang out with your family!! Graduation was awesome. Devin, Joelle and a couple of the other girls are all hanging together at Lackland and enjoying the experience!

I am picking up Devin's mom in the morning and heading North! See you Thursday!

Devin called 5 minutes after we got off our plane back home! We were on our way to baggage claim. Talk about great timing. I am sure you got a call from Joelle. they had been up for about 34 hours at the point.

Great, we will see you there then. I hope they don't call while I am flying today...that would suck!!  I hope they did well yesterday!

Hi Jon,

Yes we did get a call on Sat. She was so excited to get to call! It was good timing too...she also to talk to her Uncle and her Nana :) She sounded good and was excited that it was the last week. She told us not to drive up because it was too far just to see her for a few hours. I told her to let me worry about that...when you have kids you will understand! lol

I have your number and will call. we should get there in the afternoon. I was planning on going to Sarge's Meet n Greet,Thurs night. Is that where it is at?

Hey Jon, That's great to hear...sorry she was frustrated. If she is, then I am sure Devin is also. She does not suffer fools well. I haven't heard anything as to how well she knows Joelle, but I can't imagine them not being friends...lol. I am sure they will both do well on everything and show up the boys. They should have fun with Battle Stations! I hope you are right about Monday...it has been long enough.

Jon, Welcome Aboard!

My son served as an ABE aboard the USS Ronald Reagan in San Diego, Ca. and my family and I couldn't have been prouder of him. I created NavyDads when he was in boot camp in hopes that this site would better inform new Navy Dads and Navy Families that followed behind me. I designed, built, and launched NavyDads.com June 18, 2008, two days before his Navy graduation.

NavyDads provides the best community for learning about Navy life for everyone but particularly the parents. We are a place for sharing experiences with others that have gone through and are going through the same thing as you. We give you real-time information from others going through it, the sense that you're not alone and the opportunity to help another along.

So jump right in, share concerns, join groups, share info, and show off your Sailor. I hope this site benefits you and your family throughout your Sailors journey in the United States Navy and I thank them for their service. I wish them the best in their travels and I'm glad you've found us.

Sincerely,
Elmo Moore

Greetings Jon! When my son joined the Navy I really had no idea nor a clue on what he’s about to partake in besides what I’ve seen on tv and some stories I've heard from friends and relatives who have served in the military.

However, I'm so honored and very proud of his decision to serve our great country.

From the start, I’ve perused Navy and recruiter information online and beyond but I felt that I needed more peace of mind to help keep me from worrying too much. I also wanted to hear from real people who've been around the block and others to share knowledge and experience throughout this entire journey.

That's when I found this website while searching for answers...

We're all in this together and I hope you too will find NavyDads.Com useful with lots of real shared information.

Don't forget to check out our Groups section and join a group that shares your interest. Please keep us posted on your sailor's progress via status updates, discussion forums, blogs and photos...

A Warm "Thank You" from our family to you and your daughter Vannessa for her service!

Welcome Aboard... :)

Welcome aboard Jon.
I would like to take this time to point you in some of the right directions. For starters if you haven't had the time take a look at the right side of any page you click on. There you will find some useful information for you. The links under the about this site will help you with how this site got started, navigation, P.I.R., About us, community guidelines and some links to some of the groups that beginners with a lot of questions will find very useful. There is also a link called Navy Enlisted Ratings, this link will take you to a brief description of the rates (jobs) in the Navy that you can find your sailors rate and find out some information about the rate that they are in.
First and foremost though we are all here for the same reason. We are curious about what our young sailors are getting into and for more information about the rate or job that they will be doing for the next 4-6 yrs. of their lives. I know when I first got here I had lots of questions and there was not a lot of people on this site but they all were either going through the same thing or had been through it and had sailors out in the fleet. Now this site has grown to over 6000 members, Dads, Moms, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, sisters, brothers, girlfriends and boyfriends. Don't be afraid to ask questions of members in here because somewhere along the way we have all had the same questions and asked. There are a lot of knowledgeable people on this site with various years of experience in the NAVY either on their own account or through their Sailors.
Again welcome aboard and BRAVO ZULU to you and your daughter Vanessa on her enlistment and please thank her for me for making the choice to defend the freedoms that my family, this country and I have and enjoy.
