"Elmo Moore Thank you very much for this site! It's so wonderful to be here. Almost all of my questions are answered here. Everyday I learned a lot. Gerry"

Thank you for the welcome wishes.  Like Ernie's son my son is in the DEP program.  Unlike Ernie's son he has received mixed information that is delaying his getting a NSW contract.  Namely he had PRK surgery at the beginning of March, which his recruiter knew about but failed to inform him that he would have to wait six months before he could take his PST...and then wait some additional time to go to Great Lakes.  One would think that this information would be clearly established.  He has no restrictions from a medical point of view but until the six month passes he cannot even train with the mentor.  I could understand with Lasik surgery but PRK is infinitely less invasive.  Had we known this, we would have pushed for the PRK surgery last summer and been done with it.  Heads up to other prospective candidates.

Thank you for creating this site. It is an absolutely wonderful experience to read about the different stories, get information, ask questions etc. The people are wonderful

Elmo, thanks for the warm welcome.  I'm looking forward to getting involved & sharing my son's experiences.  Take care.

Thanks a lot for the info on hotels near RTC.  I'll check them out and make a reservation soon.  Let me know if you know anything to do with my sailor while I'm there.  I'm sure we won't have very much time to spend together and it will go by fast.  I booked my flight back for Sunday at 8 PM so I don;t know what I'm gonna do for an extra day there.

Thank you for the welcome Elmo.  This seems like a great site and I look forward to reading and educating myself about the Navy.  Although I had a nephew serve in the Navy, this is all new to me.  I appreciate the support.

Regards,

Todd

Thank you for your warm welcome and for creating this valuable tool. My son, SR McClure, Sean M, is going into his 3rd week of boot camp. He is currently aboard Ship 2 (USS Reuben James) Division 926. At this time, we have not heard from him at all. I understand this is normal but, I'm not having much luck reassuring his mother. Again, thank you for your personal welcome and I look forward to sharing his progress in the near future.

Best regards,

Mark

Thank You for the Invite! Looking forward to watching My Daughter Fly like an Eagle! 

Thanks for the nice welcome, E.G.   I'm really glad to have found this website you created.   It has a ton of information that my wife and I will need as my daughter goes up the Sea Cadet ranks, and applies to the Naval Academy and NROTC.  And of course, it will also be a great resource for us once she's in the Navy, either in the enlisted or officer ranks.  Thank you for creating this website !   Gary Zaetz, Cary, North Carolina.

Thank you for welcoming me to the site, it has been great, look forward to exploring it more in greater detail. Thanks again.

Thanks for the welcome note!  Looking forward to exploring the site and learning all about it.
