  Thank you for creating this forum for all of us navy dads out here. My son is an OS aboard the USS Nimitz. We too are very proud of our son and all the members of the armed forces that help defend our great country. I will be attending the tiger cruise this year and hope to have many photos & stories to share in the future. Thanks to your son and all of our fine sailors out there.

  Jerry, Welcome Aboard!
  
  My son is an ABE aboard the USS Ronald Reagan in San Diego, Ca. and my family and I couldn't be prouder of him. When he first enlisted 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 Damian for his service for me and thanks again for joining us.
  
  Sincerely, EG

  Welcome to NavyDads Jerry ! I'm sure you'll find the site as fun, useful, and educational as I have. Explore the site 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 certainly have! If you have any questions or concerns about your sailor and what he 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 in the family - my son Eric (AM3) recently returned from a seven-month cruise on the carrier Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) and my daughter Kat (MC3) returned last fall from a seven-month cruise on the carrier Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72). And Jerry this is a great place to brag about your sailor as well! So join in and let us know how Damian is doing! We do ask that you remember that we talk about the Navy here and we must keep the security and safety of our sailors in mind at all times. On the right side of every NavyDads page is an area we call About This Site. Please take a minute and read through the Operations Security (OPSEC) link and the NavyDads Guidelines link. And stop by the NavyDads offical store- Navyoutfitters.com. Show your support for NavyDads by wearing the latest in NavyDads attire. Best Regards- Paul
  
  We have a Tiger Cruise group...go to Groups at the top of the page and you can search for the group....there are a number of blogs and slide/video shows about the TR's cruise early last year.
