Christopher,
Sorry that I didn't get your email until just now... we had some issues with the wireless last night. So glad to hear that you got your vehicle repaired. Be safe, my friend. Congratulations again to your sailor!

Shane,
The ceremony was absolutely awesome- all the sailors looking and acting so professional. The drill floor at liberty call was a madhouse and after hugs and photos with my son we did some looking around and asked to try to find your son with no luck. Hopefully you'll get some photos from your ex. I wish that you could have been here... I know that you do too. Please let me know if you got to see some images of the event.

Got a letter today from the boy. Said that things are getting much better. also said that their division got to eat lunch with a bunch of Senior Chiefs and a couple of Sgt Majors from the Army. He said it was really cool because they were able to talk to all of these senior guys like regular sailors and not recruits. His sister got a letter that said that they were going to be able to have liberty right after Christmas through Jan 6. I guess it's one of those deals where they can leave base but need to be back every night. I think his sister and mother are going to try and get their for couple of days.

thanks for looking, I talked to him and his sister yesterday and they got a lot of pictures. Sean said that he had to stand for at least an hour while holding the flag at parade rest. They said it was pretty awesom and now they are exploring the Chicago area until tomorrow.
