N4M's Community Guidelines

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"

That's helpful to know, I'll end up driving so I don't have to worry if I need to extend my flight if he ends up not shipping out to A school the next day. All my love.

I forgot to introduce myself.  My son was at bootcamp in 2009.  He has now been honorably discharged and is back home, is completing his Bachelors with the GI Bill  (hopefully this summer!), has a baby son and is working.  Hard for me to realize that it was so long ago that he was up there!  Seems like just yesterday!  I stay on the PIR groups (have been since he graduated bootcamp!) to help out since I love being here.  It is so exciting to see the new families here with SRs starting their careers in the Navy.  Your N4Moms veteran team loves helping!

It is possible, Anna, that they won't fly out until Sat.  But you never know.  For those staying in GL for A School, they will have Thurs after PIR, Fri, Sat and Sun Daytime Liberty!  Your SR/sailor will not know until right before PIR which day he/she flies out.

Good Morning Everyone!

Hi Anna- my sons in the same ship09 div212. Hoping for the fourth to spend with him as well.
Comment by Anna on May 16, 2014 at 8:02am
My husband is ship09 div212 I just received his letter with the graduation information. Do you guys think that they will let them have the Fourth of July off since it's a federal holiday? That would be amazing!!!

2boysandamom:  Love your screen name....so cute!

Hmmm.....sadly, they may not know this until shortly before PIR.  When they have Wed PIR before Thanksgiving Day, they normally have Thanksgiving Day Liberty and fly out the next day.  Not sure if it will be the same for July 4th.  I would suggest that when you make your own travel plans, if you are flying, that you try and stay at least until Saturday, just in case.  Because....if they happen to have Friday there in GL (and we just don't know yet), you would also be able to meet your sailor at the airport and wait there until the plane departs (with proper ID).

Hi!

Welcome to Navy for Moms!!

My Sailor Daughter's PIR was March 2013--can't believe how fast time has flown!.  She is an IT3 (Information Systems Technician, Petty Officer Third Class) stationed in Norfolk, Virginia. I primarily provide scriptural encouragement for the PIR groups, Boot Camp Moms (and loved ones) and a few of the other groups that I am a member of.  I'll also help out with anything that I am familiar with--all kinds of tidbits I learned during my daughter's Boot Camp experience~~  This site really made the time go much faster.  I'm so thankful that my Sailor daughter sent me the link for this awesome group of friends when she enlisted!!  Count 9 Fridays and before you know it, you'll be seeing your baby again at PIR!!  Here we go!!!

Comment by 2boysandamom on May 15, 2014 at 4:35pm
With graduation being on Thurs. July 3rd would the sailors fly out on the 4th for A school or would they get liberty that day and fly out on Saturday? Just hoping to spend the 4th of July with him. Thanks
