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."

Hello NavyMomJeg, I live in French Valley behind wine country. My son just left and I am so thankful for this place to vent. It is good to know other moms understand what you are going through.
Familyof6, yes, I'm in Temecula. Welcome to the group!
Any moms in Temecula/Winchester area?
Hi I am new and would love to meet/get together with other Navy Moms! Nikki T.
Hi All! We are having a free open house for all military families at our ranch in Yorba Linda. The date is April 28th 2012. I am trying to fill the hole left by my daughter who is currently on the GW in Japan by helping out other Military families. Hope you all can stop buy! More info on our web site- www.crktrainingstable.com/horses4heroes
Yolanda, that seaman and his family are in our prayers - and your son, too.
Hello So Cal Moms, I live in Mentone, east of San Bernardino. My daughter is stationed in San Diego, she has been in the Navy for almost 3 years. We are close it helps that she is two hours away from us. I see that you are having a meet and greet soon but won't be able to make it. I look forward to meeting some of you soon.
