Just found out one of Michael's step-granddaughters has joined the Navy. She's in DEP and is shipping out to Great Lakes on Jan 7.
She's a wild child in her early 20's....according to my son all of her tattoos will be covered but one small one on her wrist.....she will be a "airedale".....on the flight deck moving planes and such....he said she will be a "blue shirt" (he was a green)
The Navy is going to have it's work cut out.............

......
Deb, you and Michael will be surprised how much of the "wildness" she will leave behind starting January 7th. Bootcamp and training takes a little dedication....probably something she may be lacking now.....Just wait!

My son was a wild child also....amazing what bootcamp did for him.

I hope she does well....she needs something good for her, and needs to get away from her home situation. Her mother relies on her as a crutch, and her father (Michael's son in law) wants to control her every breath.
She had several scholarship offers for soccer, took probably the worst one, and dropped out after her first semester, and has never really stayed in school since. However, according to my son, she has a PhD in partying....it takes one to recognize it in another.
This could be the best thing for her.
