Welcome New Marine Babies!
This page is especially for New Daddies and New Babies! We've got lots of babies on the way and we want to honor each of their families and daddies and mommies that are working so hard in these tough times. May God bless each of these families.

(H& S Co 3rd BN 7th Marines) On May 11,2003 Mother's Day. I received a call from Frank at 7 a.m. today, wishing me a Happy Mother's Day. He wanted to know how our little baby boy was doing who was born while he was in Iraq. He said it is hot over there. And he can't wait to come home to hold our son. He sounded really good. He received 2 packages today from me. He said he had to go because other Marines from his unit were making phone calls to their Mothers also for Mother's Day. We talked for about 15 minutes. I was so happy to hear his voice.
