I havent commented since my son left for basic back in 2014. He ended up being separated due to his back while in basic. I am a Navy veteran as well as Army, Navy Reserves and Air Force Reserves. I am disability retired from the VA in Marion as a Police Dispatcher, at least that was my last job there. I am pro Navy all the way and if I can add some encouraging words for kids heading to basic Ill be glad to share even though alot has changed in basic since I was there in the 70's

Is this still an active group? Just had son #2 enlist this week and am wondering if there any other parents needing support. Even though I’ve been through this before, it is still emotional and somewhat nerve wracking! So very proud to be a Navy Mom x 2!!!!

Hi Joe, welcome aboard from Nappanee!  My son Andrew just finished his enlistment in the Seabees after 5 years. This is a great place to get your questions answered as your son prepares and enters Navy life. Good luck to him in his coming adventures.

Hey everyone!  I see that this group has been stagnant for almost a year now.  Let's change that!!! My son just enlisted on 9-9-15.  I am so proud of him!!!  He ships out to boot camp on April 12, 2016.  I'm a very proud but very nervous Navy Dad!

It is a reminder that this journey our children have chosen involves serious risks under potentially adverse conditions.  We honor life of Cpl. Spears and his service and sacrifice to our Country.

Just joined the group. My son (Jon) is in Goose Creek SC for A-school and Nuke training. He had PIR on May 30, 2014. Looking forward to meeting some other families with sailors here in IN.
