We ask that you not use your last name in your Username (even if it differs from your Sailor's) and not post photos with names visible on uniforms, for OPSEC reasons and the security of both you and our Sailors. Go to “Settings” on the main page to set your Username, add a profile image and complete your Profile.
Jump right in! Browse around the site and check out the groups and their Discussion Forums. Search for groups for boot camp, your PIR date, your Sailor's occupational specialty and "A" school, duty station or homeport and ship, and also your own state, region or home town, and interests from getting ready for deployment to care package ideas.
Be sure to introduce yourself when you join a group, and feel free to ask any and all questions - we were all new to this once, too :) We look forward to getting to know you and your Sailor, and welcome to the NAVY family!

Has your Sailor had PIR?
What is your Sailor’s rating (job/occupational specialty) or field going to be? There are groups for most specialties and/or "A" Schools.
Take care and blessings to you and yours.

Make at least change 3 at the bottom of OPSEC and PERSEC (Making Changes to Your Profile) (clickable link).
If your Username contains your last name, also make changes 1 and 2.
There may be other changes you need to make as well, so read and consider each of the changes.
Another change that I recommend that is mentioned in change 1 is to change the ZIP Code to one that is not easily associated with you or your son.
