  Joe, Welcome Aboard!
  
  When my son first enlisted in the Navy I found NavyForMoms in searching for answers to his future. I just knew their had to be a site for dads but found out 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 hope this site will benefit fathers that follow behind me. So jump right in share concerns, join groups, share info, and learn about the Navy. I hope this site benefits you and your family throughout your decesion in joining the Navy. Thank you for your soon to be service for me and thanks again for joining us.
  
  Sincerely, E.G.

  Welcome to NavyDads Joe! I'm sure you'll NavyDads.com useful, educational and informative. Please explore the site and make some Navy friends, add your comments to a discussion or two, read the postings in the various groups-- even start a few. I certainly have! If you have any questions or commentds about what you will be going through...be sure to post them! I'm sure someone here can answer your questions or concerns 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) is stationed on the carrier Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) and my daughter Kat (MC3) just completed her five-year enlistment on the carrier Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72). And Joe this is a great place to brag as well! So join in and be sure to let us know how you are 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.
  
  As a future sailor soon to be at Great Lakes you'll have many questions about what you will be going through. In the Navy Bootcamp group is a discussion called A MUST READ for all New Navy Parents. Take a few minutes to read through this post as it will do a lot to give you some understanding about what you will be learning and why. And be sure to check out the videos as they address many of your questions and concerns.
