PIR happens!!!

Well we finally got to see our son "Graduate" from Boot Camp on Friday 02/13/09. He was in Group 102, USS Triton. It was a great ceremony, seems to be very long when you are waiting to see your son for the first time in 9 weeks, but the wait is so worth it. A reminder to those who will be attend their childs graduation, be there very early, we arrived at 0715 and the good seats were already taken! The weather was of course cold and it snowed 4 inches… Continue

MASTER AT ARMS

My son Colin graduated from basic training December 5, 2008. His A school was at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio Texas. He graduates February 20th 2009.

Update

We finally found out that Craig will be stationed in Lemoore, CA.
He is land based and will be part of the Black Aces. He was happy with these orders.
Now we are waiting to see if he can come home for a quick visit before he travels across the country.
God Bless all your sons and daughters. Praying for their safety.

Got A House in Hawaii

After living in Navy housing or a submarine for the past two years, Paul got a house just outside of Pearl Harbor, HI!

He's sharing the house with two shipmates. This way, they actually make money with the housing allowance that they get.

So, now my "little boy" has a BMW Z3 and a house in Hawaii (when he's not under the water). Amazing....

Jeremy is in Div 102 and it seems more like months (many) rather than weeks since we have seen him. I am a 20+ year retiree of the USCG and have been there and done that, but this business of my only son going through Boot Camp with little communication has been rough at best. His letters… Continue
