    Welcome to NAVYforMoms.com!   

    Head to “Settings” on the main page right away to add a profile image (no last names visible, please) and complete your Profile. Then - and this is important! - read these Community Guidelines and this Operations Security (OPSEC) Checklist, for the safety and privacy of all our Sailors.

    Then jump right in!  Browse around the site and check out the groups and the information in their Discussion Forums.

    Join this group for boot camp moms, where you'll also find a group for your Pass in Review (graduation) date; and this one for PIR Reference Information.  

    Get a head start during boot camp by joining groups for, and learning about, your Sailor's occupational specialty and "A" School; and later your Sailor's duty station and/or Navy ship and homeport. You can also join groups for your own state, region or home town and interests from getting ready for deployment to care package ideas!

    Please say Hi when you join a group, and feel free to ask any and all questions - everyone was new once, and there is no "dumb" question. 

    This site was created by the U.S. Navy just for you, and we look forward to getting to know you and your Sailor.  

    Welcome to the NAVY family - we're so glad you're here!!

    You may want to check out Moms of Navy Musicians(it’s not very active) and families with a sailor at Little Creek Viginia

    The Rating information Card for MU can be found at https://www.cool.navy.mil/usn/enlisted/rating_info_cards/mu.pdf(If you get the security warning, it is safe to go there.) 

    Your Sailor will most likely fly out to "A" School the day after PIR. Plan to leave late Saturday or on Sunday. See PIR Day and Liberty during PIR Weekend to help you know how to plan your weekend. 

    There is info on the MU rating and the Navy Band in http://www.navyband.navy.mil/index.html.

    Thanks for the info! It’s so overwhelming. Can you tell me anything about families going to A school with their spouses? I’m planning to follow my husband out to a school once he is settled.
    Also can you tell me anything about how the navy helps move or who I contact to put our things in storage?
