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.
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!!
Andi14 - I am one of the "seasoned" moms that is on this site. I help watch for new members in two of my primary groups. BC Mom group and the Nuke Mom group. My son is a Nuke and has been in for 3+ years, he is now out in the fleet. I wanted to welcome you to the Nuke Moms group but I also wanted to encourage you to join the BC Moms group as well. If you look below where boot camp moms is in blue, click on that and it will take you to that group, so you can join.
There is a lot of other information and more links that will be shared or posted repeatedly on the group but this is important if they are still at home. Make sure to write a short note of encouragement that can be tucked into their Bible or wallet that they can keep to read if they need to as it will be even longer for them to get mail than you and that is about 4 -5 weeks now.
