for
N4M's Community Guidelines
and
OPSEC.

~OPSEC OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance.

~N4M’s also has Community Guidelines just like any other social media.

~Please take the time to read the OPSEC and N4M’s Community Guidelines.

~A quick note here, from the N4M’s CG’s:

• Don’t Jeopardize the Safety of Our Sailors: Remember OPSEC (Operational Security) (Don’t Sink Ships With Loose Lips) This site and all content posted on it are viewable to everyone on the Internet. This doesn’t mean you can’t share things about your Sailor – but too many details can put Sailors in harm’s way. The following are examples of red flags and should not be shared within this community either by posting or sending via a Group message:

• Sailors’ last names. This includes your username if you share the same last name as your son or daughter.

Some Suggestions:

~If your last name is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended for you to use in your username for your own personal security. This is your option. It is also not a good idea to use an email address as your username for personal security reasons.

~First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember, everyone can see it and someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture to not include your Recruit at least for the duration of BC. Again, your option

~It is also a good idea to make your settings for your Profile Page "viewable only to your friends"

Whites are for the summer only and blues are for the winter.

Comment by VKat on February 3, 2014 at 11:16am
He is 085 so as far as I've heard they did not win
Comment by TJsMom on February 3, 2014 at 11:07am
KVAT what division? If his div own Captains Cup they may have gotten Ricky heaven.
Comment by VKat on February 3, 2014 at 10:46am
Ok I have a question. I just checked my SR bank account and noticed that he has a pending charge from Subway & Taco Makers of Illinois. He went to "Ricky Heaven" on 1/24 but he didn't have his check card at the time (local bank card) plus even if he had it wouldn't still be pending. Besides that the charges weren't there on Friday morning. Could he have gotten RH again. Is there another reason that he would have been able to go there this close to PIR?
Comment by mikesmom on February 3, 2014 at 10:15am

Good morning! Ok so who's getting excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment by BeachBunny on February 3, 2014 at 9:59am

Good Morn PIR week....Mommas...

Exciting week!.....

Haven't heard of switching uniforms when traveling on orders in a group...seems that information is out of context...my sailor always travels in uniform...love the blues, made of wool and really sharp looking...even the white don't show the dirt that bad and can easy be cleaned up due to the material they are made out of...

Getting ready to travel....:))

Comment by diannep on February 3, 2014 at 9:10am

Ok, so we think that Div 083-086 went through last night (BattleStations).  If we are right on that, then calls should come in as early as 2 pm Central time today...remember, not all can call early...some may get on their FB accts first (they have a chance to use the computers) so be checking their FB pages to see if you have a sailor.  Please ask your sailor if all in that division passed and post that.  Some may have "watch" and not be able to call today and it would be good for those families to know that they have a sailor.

Good Morning!

Comment by diannep on February 3, 2014 at 9:07am

TJsMom:  It is up to you on which shuttle service you use.  Sarge probably gives you a little more personal service!  We didn't know about Sarge when I was up there, so used the area shuttle service and it was fine.  Had nice drivers both ways, no problem getting there or back, and our sailor returned to the hotel on the shuttle with us.

As BeachBunny said, the price is the same no matter which shuttle service you use.

BlueForever:  Your sailors will be in their blues, not their whites, so no worries.  They don't show the dirt as much.  I have never heard this before...that the sailors are changing into their NSUs and then changing back.  Hmmm....

Comment by BlueForever on February 3, 2014 at 1:43am

I saw the following post on FB  - "Recommend sailors change into Navy Service Uniform (NSU's) after arrival to the airport. The Navy requires them to check out
and report for duty in their dress uniform (blues or whites). The whites will
get trashed if they stay in them all day. They can change back into whites and
be "squared away" when they arrive at their next duty station. They
should pack their NSU's and black belt at the top of their sea bag before
leaving RTC."  Should we tell our SRs this?
