While there, complete your Profile so you can post and share photos and videos of your Sailor and share stories with other moms!

Join groups! Browse for groups for your PIR date, your sailor's occupational specialty, "A" school, assigned ship, homeport city, your own city or state, and a myriad of other interests. Jump in and introduce yourself! Start making friends that can last a lifetime.

OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Hey all hate to do this but I am canceling my attendance tomorrow... I have been sick for the last week with a cold~ flu that is just hanging on... half my office is out with it. I really do not want to pass it on to any of you!! Feel free to meet if you want otherwise how about meeting next week?? Anyone??

Hey there... we try to meet in a central location to give those from the north and south equal distance to drive... last time was in Southcenter... next time probably back toward the north in Alderwood??

Well, too many things to do before she leaves, so I won't be there. But I look forward to meeting you all some other time. Do you ever do a north end lunch?

T'was just weeks until Christmas and all thru the land,
navy moms, dads and others were planning to band,
together for lunch to visit and chat,
support one another with hugs, this and that!
The table was set for as many as would
make the trip out from their part of the 'hood'!
They each brought a picture of their sailor love
so we could all see who they are so proud of!
Along with that they brought a small gift
less than $10 to trade for a lift!
Can't wait to see all that will gather
No other place that day would i rather!

I take my daughter to Bremerton the next day, but I would LOVE to meet you all. Are Dads welcome too? Maybe my DD will spend that day with her boyfriend. Gotta call work now and beg off! Thanks for organizing this Susan.
