A little about me:
My son has been in the Navy Reserves for about 5 years and will be deployed. Even though he is in his 20's,he is my youngest child and I will miss him dearly (not to mention worry about him). I'm looking for other mothers who are going through or have gone through a Navy Reservist Deployment.
I am here to support my
Son/Daughter
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy career?
Reserve
When I heard “Navy,” I...
had concerns or fears
The Navy offers opportunities that...
are a still a mystery to me.
Our Navy experience so far...
is a work in progress!

    Welcome to NavyforMoms.com. My name is Ronny and my son has been in the Navy since February of 2012. He is currently stationed in San Diego with a Helicopter Squadron. He is an Aviation Structural Mechanic. I hope you find all the info you are looking for here, and if you have any questions feel free to ask. My son is 3rd Generation Navy, so I do know a little about the Navy..:)

    If you have a new Sailor who is in Boot Camp, or leaving soon, visit CallsforRecruits.org and I will send you FREE Pre-Paid Phone cards for your SR to use while they are in boot camp. I started that program when my son left for Boot Camp :)

    Hi, I see you have joined San Antonio MA's and MAA Moms; MA is a rating very dear to my heart since my Sailor is an MA. The discussion, Break down week by week, witin San Antonio MA's will let you know what happens at NTTC Lackland (San Antonio). Other groups to check out are New MAA Mom's (it has not been very active) and Security Sailors (it is not as active and includes loved ones of Sailors from other ratings as well). The Rating Information Card for MA can be found at https://www.cool.navy.mil/enlisted/rating_info_cards/ma.pdf. Take care and blessings to you and yours.

    Good Morning!  Are you looking for the Facebook page PIR 08/12?  If you are on Facebook, send me your email and I'll send you an invite to join the group.  Someone sent me an invite, that is the only way I found it!  If you aren't on Facebook, there is another PIR 8/2 Graduation Day page on the Navy4Moms website.  Is your PIR 8/2 also?
