This site is for mothers of kids in the U.S. Navy and for Moms who have questions about Navy life for their kids.

FIRST TIME HERE?

FOLLOW THESE STEPS TO GET STARTED:

Go to "Settings" above to set your Username.  While there, complete your Profile so you can post and share photos and videos of your Sailor and share stories with other moms!

Make sure to read our Community Guidelines and this Navy Operations Security (OPSEC) checklist - loose lips sink ships!

Join groups!  Browse for groups for your PIR date, your sailor's occupational specialty, "A" school, assigned ship, homeport city, your own city or state, and a myriad of other interests. Jump in and introduce yourself!  Start making friends that can last a lifetime.

OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Hi! Whew. Okay, glad we are friends on here. I joined in June but with it being so busy leading up to Amy leaving in August, have not had time to explore the site. Love what I've encountered today. I love your photos. I am definitely going to set that up on my profile this weekend. We have to meet when we are in Chicago!!

Thanks for the update but alas I have not received a letter or a phone call so either he screwed up or the guys in the division didn't get to make calls. Hope fully I will hear something this week. I so appreciate you sharing what ever information you have as there does not appear to be many moms in our division.

So happy to hear you finally received a letter. Alas, I was not so lucky. However Stephen's girl friend did receive one and told me that he is doing good but is very glad that week two was over. I am hoping that I get a letter tomorrow but if they only had time to write one than It will be another week. I am so sorry to hear she is crying herself to sleep at night. I bet she is not alone, We females seem to express and relive our stress through our tears. I do hope things get better for her.

I agree, there doesn't seem to be much discussion going on in our group. We must not be very big talkers! I haven't yet received a letter but am hoping for one tomorrow. Stephen's girlfried did get a letter today so I got to hear enough to wet my appitite.
