Talked to Tony yesterday and he said he was hanging out with Matt at the polar bear club event last week. Said he was doing fine.

We asked him in a letter but that was a week ago. His last letter was dated 12/30 so he has not read our question yet. We will be looking for Mathew at PIR.

Great News
Anitoli sent us a letter today, Ship 13 Div 056 Battle station is Sunday night the 10th through 11th AM. Should get the call Monday that he is a real Sailor!!!!
Also he got promoted to E-2 and earned a Sharp Shooter Ribbon. Everything is easy and he is having a great time. Gas chamber training was a great adventure for all but they made it through with less in there gut than they went in with. Final Personel inspection was going to be today and he was really ready for it.
See you all in GL

Ask Mathew if he knows my son Anitoli HM from AZ? They are on the same ship. I will ask my son if he knows of a Mathew AE/FS from CA. We get regular letters because they are forced to write letters on Tuesday's, Thursday and Sunday. You'll hear me at Graduation cheering our SHIP 13. DIV 056

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 Matthew for his service for me and for yours as well. Thanks again for joining us.
Sincerely, EG
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. 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 your sailor is learning and why. And be sure to check out the videos as they address many of your questions and concerns.
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 stop by the NavyDads official store- Navyoutfitters.com to show your support for NavyDads.
And Mitch- thank you for your service to our great country. Best Regards- Paul
