    Welcome to NavyForMoms.com!!

    I hope you get all the information here you are looking for.  Please stop by the Survival Guide for New Moms for some of the info to start with.  
    If you have a new Recruit and need phone cards for them please check out Calls for Recruits.org and get them for FREE.  I feel that the Family, Loved Ones, nor the Men and Women of our Armed Forces should have to pay for phone calls from Boot Camp.  The link above will take you to the website to send the email for the FREE phone cards if you need them.  Please spread the word if you know of anyone who can use this great service!!!

    Hi,

    Thank you for friending me.  I see that your son is going to be in the Reserves. My son is also in the Reserves, with the Seabee detachment. He is a CM (construction mechanic) and loves it!! What rate (job) will your son be?

    It's normal to be nervous. Please know that your son is going to a very safe place and that they take very good care of the SR's (Sailor Recruit's). I knew nothing about the Navy or the Military for that matter before my son enlisted. He is my only child, and I had a very hard time during the 8 weeks that he was in bootcamp. I'm glad that you found this site prior to your son's leaving. There are so many awesome mom's here to help answer your questions. The only dumb questions are the ones not asked, in my opinion! Welcome aboard!
