SEALS
Describe A Little About Yourself (your IP address/location will be checked::
I have two boys, twins, who are now SEALS. They have wanted to do this for 5 years and have not wavered since 17. When they graduated from HS, they were given a poster that showed them walking together after their football game. As twins, they were in step, holding their helmets the same... Under the pic were two words, "Strength and Honor" which said it all for me.
They have always made me proud not only to be their dad but also to be an American. Being a soldier is from within and they are true to the core. They are in God's hands and so I am good with it.
What Brought You To This Site:
My son is recently enlisted (before PIR)
What Were Your Feelings When Your Sailor Joined The Navy:
Will, Welcome to NavyDads. My Grandson joined the Navy and went to Boot Camp in February, 2008. When I joined this site I knew nothing about the Military. It’s really helped me understand what to expect and has relieved some of my worries. Please go to the Groups Page and check out all the various offerings. Join in to learn more about what your Guy or Gal will be learning and doing. We are a big family here and you can find answers to most any question or concern regarding what’s in store for your recruit. You will find members that are new to the Navy along with those who have Loved Ones who’ve made the Navy a career. We like to hear about your recruit; the good times, the concerns, and welcome questions. I think you will find our members are a big family and everyone wants to help others understand what to expect and hear about the progress of your recruit.
Please feel free to ask questions.
I would also like to Thank You for your Service.
Again Welcome and keep us updated on your recruit.
Will, be sure to check out our Groups. We have several Groups for PIR and Boot Camp, plus Groups for the different Rates like Navy Nukes, USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72), Master at Arms. Check to see if your State or area has a Group already formed to locate others in your area. There are general interest Groups like: Care Packages, A School for Dads, NASCAR for NavyDads and the book of acronyms and ranks. We've also added a Spanish language Group. We also have a http://www.navydads.com/group/navalspecialwarfare. When you have a chance be sure to read one of the following post or all three This is a must read before posting, OPSEC and Social Media and Posting on NSW Forums (this is a must read). , after reading you will want to remove your Last Name and you sons First Name to comply with the US Navy OPSEC rules. This is for the safety of our guys.
