    Mark, you and your family will love seeingyour son James PIR. It is very moving when all of the sailors sing anchors away, not to mention seeing your son marching into the graduation hall. It will hell getting in, but well worth it. Get there early because they will search your car. Good luck andGod Bless.

    Hi Mark, when does James graduate bootcamp? Ralph left for A school on 8/20/08, he is excited about becoming an MA. He calls all the time now, not that Im complaning. He will start his classes for MA this coming monday. He also told me he will get sparyed with OC spray this coming friday. Ralphs instructors also told him he has a 90 percent chance of going to Iraq. Let me know how James is doing.

    Hi Mark, when does your son James graduate from bootcamp? My son Ralph will graduate on 08-15-08, he has liberty until Wed. but he has to be back on base at 8:30PM. I can pick him up at the front gate every morning at 7:30AM. He will ship out for A school on 08-20-08 to SanAntonio Tx. He has always wanted to be a cop.Thank your son James for serving our country. I served in the 82nd Airborn Div. for 4yrs myself. I only live 65miles away from great lakes, but they only let our sons go 50miles from base.Good luck let me know if you need anything when you and your family come for your sons PIR.

    Mark thanks for joining. 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 wouldn't feel guilty interacting in a woman's world. 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. Thank your Son for his service for me and thank you as well. Good luck and thanks again for joining. EG
