My son has been stationed in New Orleans for the last three months or so. Even though he dislikes the extreme humidity, he's grown accustomed to LPD 23's pre-commissioning weather and has taken every chance to learn and inhale everything about his duties and the Navy in general.
He is eager to hopefully get a ten day leave approved some time around Thanksgiving weekend. But obviously there are no guarantees. I know he really misses my brined turkey...
To date he's proud to have gotten his "Plankowner" ball cap, Globar War on Terrorism, Rifle Marksmanship and Pistol Sharpshooter ribbons.
He misses the family and we miss him too... Love You and hope to see you soon son!
