This site is for mothers of kids in the U.S. Navy and for Moms who have questions about Navy life for their kids.

FIRST TIME HERE?

FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO GET STARTED:

Go to "Settings" above to set your Username.  While there, complete your Profile so you can post and share photos and videos of your Sailor and share stories with other moms!

Make sure to read our Community Guidelines and this Navy Operations Security (OPSEC) checklist - loose lips sink ships!

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."

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".

Got our DVD from graduation today, as well. Still waiting for the yearbook, too. I bet it'll be here soon. So, exciting!

Received my Graduation Review 7/12/13 PIR DVD today via Fed Ex and I just looked at the whole thing - Good Memories!!  My son said he got a yearbook too!

that is not here yet.

You're welcome. It is very difficult to wait, lol. But, I suppose we better get used to it. Hurry up and wait. Have a great week!

Comment by navymom2013 on August 22, 2013 at 2:56pm

Thanks so much!  Needed Reassurance - I'll wait - It is what we as Moms learn to do.

Comment by Tink37 on August 22, 2013 at 2:54pm

We haven't received ours yet. No one on the Facebook page has received theirs either. I was told 6-8 weeks before arrival. We are about to reach week 6, so hopefully, we'll be getting them soon.

Did everyone get their DVD of the PIR  and Yearbooks yet that their sons and duaghters ordered and paid for .  I did not get anything yet and really would love to know what to do next in this regard. Thanks- Linda

SvetickShip03Div262,

CatMom: Thank you for your help and inspirational scriptures. They helped out a lot throughout this wonderful journey.

Comment by CatMom509 on July 20, 2013 at 1:20am

Time for me to leave too.  Remember to connect with the other groups here on Navy for Moms: A school groups, later on C school groups, rating (job) groups, state groups, regional groups, Navy base groups, ship groups, and the Christian Chat group of which I am a part of!  God's blessings to you and your new Sailors on this continuing Navy journey!!

Comment by Prime's Mom on July 19, 2013 at 10:03pm
Dear Diannep the number of souls you have so graciously guided will always be grateful to you. I know I speak for all out there who have been apart of your wisdom. We all appreciate the pieces you gave to help each one of us and we thank you for that. We know that you have more to help and they too will be thanking you soon. God Bless
