Good luck on the pics Bob. Something I always begged my son for but it was the last thing on his mind when he hit dry land. Not a high priority to take pictures for ol' dad to put on navydads.com. Hope you have better luck.

Check out the tribute videos section. I wasn't the best but they got a little better over time . It was easier back when the site was small with nothing to do, so finding time for doing the videos was easy. I loved doing them and want to continue showcasing our Sailors again one day.

With over 100 videos, it sounds like you have experience making them. If you ever have the time or interest in making tribute videos for us, that would be awesome. We are run by volunteers, so sorry it would pay nothing. The way I did it, was by using the pictures uploaded on the site, picked a song, and put the video together.

So let me know if your ever looking for a part time job, with no pay. lol

Have a safe trip to PIR and send my congratulations to your Sailor.

Bob, Welcome Aboard!

When my son first enlisted in the Navy I found NavyForMoms in searching for answers to his future. I just knew their had to be a site for dads but found out 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 hope this site will benefit fathers that follow 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 both Bobby & Greg for their service for me and thanks again for joining us.

Sincerely, E.G.

Welcome to NavyDads.com Bob! I'm sure you'll find NavyDads as useful, educational and informative as I have. Please explore the site and make some new friends. Read the discussions and add your comments. Browse through the postings in the various groups or start a new one. I certainly have! If you have any comments, questions or concerns about your sailor and what they are going through...be sure to post them! In my experience someone here can answer your questions or concerns or can point you in the direction to find out. I'm blessed to have two sailors in the family - my son Eric (AM3) is stationed on the carrier Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) and my daughter Kat (MC3) just completed her enlistment on the carrier Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72). And Bob this is a great place to brag as well! So join in, get active, and be sure to let us know how your sailors are doing! Please remember that we talk about the Navy here and we must keep the security and safety of our sailors and the fleet in mind. On the right or starboard side of every NavyDads page is an area we call About This Site. Please take a minute and read through the Operations Security (OPSEC) link for some guidelines as to what we should and should not talk about in a public forum.

As a parent of a sailor currently or soon to be at Great Lakes you'll have many questions about what your son is going through. In the Navy Bootcamp group is a discussion called A MUST READ for all New Navy Parents. Read through this post as it will do a lot to give you some understanding about what your sailor is learning and why. And be sure to check out the videos available in the Bootcamp Group as well.

As PIR draws closer, be sure to spend some time going through the PIR-Tips, Hints and Helps group- we’ve tried to assemble some tips and suggestions to make your sailor's PIR more enjoyable. Best Regards- Paul
