Impressive. Best of luck to your son.

How long is his tour? What are his duties on the ship?



This is scheduled to be a 6 month deployment. They departed Norfolk in
early October. He has been in the Navy for about a year and a half and
has 2 and a half more years of active duty to go. He went to a state
college for a year, then transfered to Mass Maritime Academy for 3
years, then got the itch for adventure and duty.

He is assigned to an air squadron on the Truman. (VAW 126)
