thanks for putting together a great website,lots of good stuff here.

Thank you for creating this site.

I got the call from Adam earlier today that he arrived-we have a long way to go.

Elmo,

Thanks so much for creating this site where extended Navy families can come together and get information to help them through the especially difficult initial enlistment. It's truly a Godsend!

I have a question and not sure where to go with it. James' maternal grandfather was not able to navigate the internet to watch PIR last Fri. (7/25) on the live stream. Paternal grandfather did manage and was thrilled. Is there a site / web address to go that will replay last Friday's ceremony? Grandpa is a Staunton Military School grad but faculties are failing and he really wanted to see the ceremony. We were trying to guide him in even after the band began but to no avail. I even emailed the link from my iPhone but he still couldn't manage to get it pulled up. If there is any way that I can direct a proud grandfather to a replay of the last PIR, he would be eternally grateful. Thanks again for your service, as well as your family's!

Elmo, thanks to you and everyone else running NavyDads.com for putting together such a valuable community for parents. It will be a great asset as we follow our son's Navy career. Jeff W

 Gary, Tim, Elmo and other friends from NavyDads.

I appreciate the help and advice. Like all "new recruits" have many doubts, questions and concerns, but I know can count on NavyDads.com to clarify all these points.

Thank you and I feel for the family.

Cheers,

Pablo

Thanks for the welcome. My son (Jonathan) previously served on the carrier CVN-75 USS Harry S. Truman after boot camp December 2001 to Oct 2005.  He was in damage control. He also had a cruise to the Med when the Iraq war started and served in the Persian Gulf a year later.  Jonathan was released from active duty in 2005 and was a reservist until Dec. 2014 until he decided to go active again.  He just completed the MR course (Re-Train) in Great Lake He will be reporting to the USS Pinckney DDG91 on Aug 1, 2014.  His reenlistment caught his mother and myself by surprise. In the end it was a good move on his part.

Hello,

What a great website!

Also, thank you for the friendly welcome!  We are eager to meet other families who have a son or daughter who have just entered the U.S. Navy. 

Kind Regards,

Barbara

Elmo,

Thanks for the welcome and thank you for creating this tool to help us unknowing parents navigate this crazy, unknown journey our SR's are going through.

Best Regards,

Chuck

Thank you Elmo for creating such a great place for us Navy Dads to share thoughts, feelings and to ask questions.  Having two boys in RTC at once will be overwhelming at times, as just having Dylan in now makes me feel as though I have lost a little part of my daily routine.  Our oldest son left for the Army two years ago, so I knew what to expect a little, but it is something you are never really ready for, I dont think.  Anyway, thanks again and I look forward to taking advantage of the site and using it to my benefit.  Nick
