Describe A Little About Yourself (your IP address/location will be checked::

I used to be a Navy wife and now I'm a PROUD Navy mom! I have 4 sons, one a Delta employee, one a sailor (he was a sailor to me the second he raised his hand the second time) and 2 at home. I'm going up to his PIR but am sorry that he's grad n go, I will drive 13 hours to see him for a couple of hours, but I'm going babeeeeee!!!!!!!! Needs of the Navy, boy am I familiar with THAT! He's lived in Hawaii for the last 3 years, so this is closer (but i'd rather go to Hawaii than IL)

    Sherri, Welcome Aboard! I'm so glad to have the Navy Moms on here to keep us men in line. 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. We have many moms on the site and benefit greatly from their point of views and we are willing to help the moms in any way we can. So jump right in share concerns, join groups, share info, and show off your sailor. I hope this site benefits you and your family throughout your sons journey in the Navy. Thank Will for his service for me and thanks again for joining us.
    Sincerely,EG

    Welcome to NavyDads Sherri! 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 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- my son Eric just returned from a seven-month cruise on the carrier Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) and my daughter Kat returned last fall from a seven-month cruise on the carrier Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72). And Sherri this is a great place to brag about your sailor as well! So join in and let us know how Will 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. Best Regards- Paul
