Hi Jim--hope things continue to progress well. As you know there sure can be some ups and downs with kids and the Navy!! I formed Daughters and their Dads in hopes of being able to support those of us with our girls in uniform....check out the group and let us know how Becka is doing! And on a side note-- thanks to you for your service.

Terry, Just recieved 4 letters from my girl. The first three said she thinks her whole Division is going to be left back 2 week, and she will miss her A school, and the other 88 girls in there with her are constantly fighting with each other, their Chief quit on them ( when she said that, I knew what was going on...) and he told them he wasn't comming back until they learn how to work as a team. (Humm...) She said it stinks because everybody is miserale all the time, and P.O 'd . She said she's lost, and dosen't know what to do..., "please give me advise".
Well, you and I know whats going on. Fast forward to the next and latest letter..." Dear Family, Today we actually made good progress w/ the Division since our emotional event the other night. " Then she went on to tell us about a letter the Cheif recieved from a long timer, who wanted to be a chief, but was sick from cancer, and how they let him take the chief's test in the hospital. Took him 3 days to finish, and he missed it by 6 points. He was made an Honorary Chief, and at the end of his talk, showed them a picture with the other Chiefs around him, putting the Chief's Hat on him. He was drawn, pale, his mouth hung open, his eyes were hollow and glazed, he was close to death. Then their Cheif asked them why, and how badly they wanted to be there. After that, they were shown 911 videos. She said all the girls, and guys were either crying , or had tears in their eyes. After that they had to write a letter to the RDL's and explain why they were there,and why they are now ready to train.( sorry this is so long) After that Becka said" Today is the firsttime we did not get in trouble, or get I.T.(intense training), it was awesome. We actually drilled and trained today. We even joked around with our RDC's. She is drilling at the front of the formation, and the R-pol(?) and the yoeman asked her to be a section leader because of her 6 years as Sea Cadet (11-17) Petty Office 2nd class. She ended it with " I just wanted to let you know things are picking up. So far, so good"
When I was done reading the letter out loud, I turned to my wife and said, 3 weeks, not 2 ! ( as far as things shaping up ) You should have seen my wife's smile! Thanks You for being here for all of us Terry. It means so much to me.

Jim your wife sounds alot like mine. My wife did plenty of crying when Evan left for bootcamp. Once he started A school he was able to call everyday. That helped my wife alot just being able to talk to him regularly. It will get better. Tell your wife to join this site their are other moms on here including my wife. They are a big help. With Becka leaving; that is just tough on us parents to watch our children grow up and leave home. We just have to be the rock for our wives. They are emotional wrecks! haha but do tell her their are moms on here as well their is a navyformoms.com site that is a big help as well. Well, how about dad? I bet that's not easy to see your little girl leave either. Just know we are here for ya'll. It's like I say I'll lean on you one day, you lean on me the next. We will all get through this together. It's like a Big Support Group. keep in touch.ttyl

Jim thanks for joining. I found navyformoms in searching for answers to my son's future. I just knew their had to be a site for dads like n4m's but I was wrong. So I started this site so us dads wouldn't feel guilty interacting in a woman's world. I'm new at this and I hope this site will benefit fathers that come 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. Thank your Daughter for her service for me and thank you as well. Good luck and thanks again for joining. EG
