  I just spoke to my son at Port Hueneme. He said they were relieved by NMCB74. I believe 74's homeport is Port Hueneme. Call 74s ombudsman and I'm quite sure you can get some names.

  Welcome to NavyDads Lindsey! 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...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 Lindsey this is a great place to brag as well! So join in and 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. And stop by the NavyDads offical store- Navyoutfitters.com. Show your support for NavyDads by wearing the latest in NavyDads attire.
  
  And Lindsey- thank you for your service to our great country. Best Regards- Paul

  NMCB5 is back in homeport. I don't know which unit relieved them, but when I next speak with my son I'll ask him. Other than that I would suggest you try calling the Navy information office at Port Hueneme, CA. They should be able to provide which battalion is there and at least provide a general APO to deliver a care package. Also the may have been for homeport Gulfport,MS whicyh is the other Seabee homeport.

  Lindsey, 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 tell of your experience's in the Navy. I'm so glad to find out their are so many proud Navy Veterans out there helping these young Sailors. We have a Sea Bee group on the site and I'm sure you can find some Sailors to send care package's to. Also check out our care package group. Thank you for your service and thanks again for joining us.
  
  Sincerely, EG
