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!!

DiannaB - Welcome to the BC Mom and Loved Ones group. I help out on the group as one of the "seasoned" moms on here. I noticed you are from GC. My son was there for 2 years for his training, he is now out in the fleet and will be completing his enlistment later this year.  Be sure to come to the group page, scroll down past the information, past the discussions and there you will see a comment wall. I will be posting a welcome to you there. That is the best place to post a hello, share where you are in your journey, and any questions that you have. 

You might also want to join our ✟CHRISTIAN NAVY MOMS - Navy For Moms (ning.com) group as well. I also help moderate that group. 

DiannaB - It looks like your time has drawn near for BC. Once your son leaves for BC, you might want to change your status above to Stage: At BC.  I will be out of pocket some as well B'sNukeMom but there are others ready and willing to answer questions or be there to offer encouragement. {BNMHs} - Big Navy Mom Hugs!
