My 17 year old son is enduring his first day at Navy bootcamp.  I can't keep my mind on anything at work. I keep wondering how he's doing and if some big drill sargent is in his face.

The swear-in cearamony was at the MEPS center in Fargo yesterday. It was a very proud moment in my life, but at the end they told him he was now the property of the US goverment. Gulp :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( I cried for the first 100 miles on the trip home.

HotTubMan:
My prayers are with you both.

J._McD:
Having had a similar experience 40 years ago, I survived boot camp  ;D AND it was atruley a life enhancing experience.  As a mother, I can only imagine what you are going through, but he's growed up now mom.  You can rest assured they will improve on what you have brought into this world and we all thank him for servicng our country.  He is now something you can be proud of, Not that he wasn't before.

I can truely say that I'm proud for you...I did the same thing in 1979! My Navy time was one of the major stepping stones to my becoming a man.

My Father got smarter every day that I was in the Navy!!
