That's great that they know each other! We talked with Mike tonight also. He is looking forward to Battle Stations.He was a little disappointed they didn't do so well in the Captain's Cup. He is fairly competitive:) We will be at Flanigans on Thursday. Not sure when we will arrive, but we will be there - all 7 of us! Vicki's parents will be with us, my 17 year old son, my 11 year old son, and my 8 year old daughter and, of course, Vicki and me.

Welcome to NavyDads Geobots2! I'm sure you'll find the site as fun and useful as I have. Explore and make some friends, add your comments to a discussion or two, read the postings in the various groups-- even start one or two. I have! If you have any questions or concerns about your sailor and what George is going through...ask! I'm sure someone here will have the answer or can point you in the right direction to find out. I'm lucky enough to have two sailors- my son Eric is on the second half of a seven-month cruise on the carrier Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) and my daughter Kat recently returned from a seven-month cruise on the carrier Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72). And Geobots2 this is a great place to brag about your sailor as well! So join in and let us know how George is doing!
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. Thanks to one of our members we have two excellent videos that you can access from the Video area on the NavyDads.com main page: New Bootcamp 1 of 2 and New Bootcamp 2 of 2. These videos will answer many of your questions and concerns and will give you a better understanding of how the United States Navy transforms our children into sailors!
Be sure to spend some time in the Bootcamp group- there are many questions and answers available to help you understand what your sailor is going through. And 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.
And Geobots2- thank you for your service to our great country! Best Regards- Paul
Geobots2, Welcome Aboard! 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 would also have a place to call home. 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. I hope this site benefits you and your family throughout your sons journey in the Navy. Thank George for his service for me and yours as well. Thanks again for joining us.
Sincerely, EG
I want to welcome you to NAVY DAD'S. I wish to thank you for your son Georges commitment to this great country of ours and want you to extend to him my best wishes for a successful career in the NAVY. Please feel at ease with the knowledge your son is in good hands with people who care about his future.
