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!!

Your NAVYforMoms Admins

Good Morning Mamalady4 - I noticed in the latest activities that you had liked B'sNukeMom's post about leaving for BC. I am one of the "seasoned" moms that sticks around and helps reach out to new members on this site, and to those who join the BC Mom (loved ones) group. I just wanted to encourage you to join us there. It is the best place to receive the most current information about BC. Here is the link again - https://navyformoms.ning.com/group/bootcampmoms

If you scroll most of the way down the main page of the group, past the discussion, you will find the comment wall and that is where we do a lot of our chatter and visiting and where you will be able to introduce yourself and start to make some connections with others. 

This site is best viewed and navigated on a computer, so if you are using a mobile device be sure to switch it to desktop mode. I only use my computer. We would love to have you join us in the BC Mom group and there are other ladies there whose loved ones are just arriving and looking to make connections with new members as well. 

My sailor has been in for over 3 years now and is in the fleet as a Nuke. The time seems slow now and will drag on, but it actually will go by faster than you think.
