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."

Is your son deployed right now? My son is also a Seabee CM, he is in Iraq.

I agree about the web cam, we have one, and my son bought one for his lap top, that he has with him, it is great, almost like talking in person!
About the ironing, I agree, for my son, a kid who never cleaned his room, sometimes took dirty clothes off the floor and put them on, to see how particular he is about his uniforms is hysterical. He even bought his own iron because he said mine had a "dirt spot" that he couldn't get off and he was afraid it would stain his uniform!!!!!

Good Luck to her, and for you, any questions or concerns, or just to chat or vent, this is the right place to be!

my son had been a reservist CB for almost 2 years, when he was sent to Missippi for training, and then deployed from there to Iraq. He is a construction mechanic, he is attached to NMCB 27, any one else with sailors in that group??

My son was told that he would get his bonus after A school, well he is a seabee and got home from A school on November 8th. He didn't really save any money while he was away. Still no bonus- he only recieved the small amount of money that they gave after drill weekend. Hopefully he will recieve it soon!

My son waited about 4 mos. after he PIR'd, but before he went to A schoo, he got the total amt. minus taxes. I think Jackie is correct that it depends on their contract.
