Staying on Mission
Welcome to the USNA Journey! Our children have chosen a very unique journey: Midshipmen at the U.S. Naval Academy. As their parents, it is up to us to give them the support and encouragement they will need for the challenges ahead, not only as Midshipmen, but also as future Naval or Marine Corps Officers.
My mission is to support, equip, and empower USNA parents with strength, knowledge, and wisdom to navigate this unique journey successfully. MidMoms and MidDads are a different breed: we stick together, we are resilient, we are faithful, we are not strangers but are lifelong friends – even if we have never met. We will always share the lifelong bond of our Mids’ and Officers’ journey and, of course, like our Mids, we Never Give Up the Ship! My book is central to my mission of empowering my fellow N*avy parents.

“”For someone like me who does not come from a military family, many of these experiences and emotions are foreign to me. My wife won [AN’s] book at our local Indiana USNA club. It has been my guiding angel since. I have perused the book at a rate better than my students using a textbook before an exam. Sentences underlined, notes taken on the side of a paragraph…the current version of the book is closest in comparison to Severus Snape’s potion book that Harry got a hold of in the half blood prince (Potter fans will know what I mean ). AN – thank you for pouring your heart out, and offering parents like me an opportunity to know the Yard with your lens. You have made my interactions with our Plebe as well as our travels to the Yard incredibly smooth. And, I got to finally check off my wish list during PPW – get an autograph from the author herself!”
