N4M's Community Guidelines
and
OPSEC.

~OPSEC OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance.

~N4M’s also has Community Guidelines just like any other social media.

~Please take the time to read the OPSEC and N4M’s Community Guidelines.

~A quick note here, from the N4M’s CG’s:

• Don’t Jeopardize the Safety of Our Sailors: Remember OPSEC (Operational Security) (Don’t Sink Ships With Loose Lips) This site and all content posted on it are viewable to everyone on the Internet. This doesn’t mean you can’t share things about your Sailor – but too many details can put Sailors in harm’s way. The following are examples of red flags and should not be shared within this community either by posting or sending via a Group message:

• Sailors’ last names. This includes your username if you share the same last name as your son or daughter.

Some Suggestions:

~If your last name is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended for you to use in your username for your own personal security. This is your option. It is also not a good idea to use an email address as your username for personal security reasons.

~First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember, everyone can see it and someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture to not include your Recruit at least for the duration of BC. Again, your option

~It is also a good idea to make your settings for your Profile Page "viewable only to your friends"

diannep: Our SR will go to A School in another state. I assume he will be flying out.

Comment by Ashley on April 20, 2014 at 6:03pm
My SR will be attending A School out of state and he was told by his recruiter that he would be allowed to stay overnight with family and then leave early the next morning. It's starting to sound like that was a big fat fib.
Comment by diannep on April 20, 2014 at 6:03pm

kim:  In every PIR group, there are many if not most SRs who are sick.  Could be the many vaccinations they receive when they arrive, temporarily compromising their immune systems, allowing them to get sick with so many germs/people around them.  They make it through.  The RDCs are good about giving "light duty" to those who are sick. 

Comment by diannep on April 20, 2014 at 6:01pm

Candle:  If they can write today, they should also be receiving the "held mail" today.  So hopefully she has your letters now.  She will then receive mail M-F, but can only mail out on Sundays.

Comment by diannep on April 20, 2014 at 6:00pm

Those staying in GL for A School will have daytime liberty (have to back on base at night) Fri/Sat/Sun.

Comment by diannep on April 20, 2014 at 5:59pm

NavyMom:  Is your SR flying out?  If so, most likely it will be early Sat morning.  They are bussed to the airports in the middle of the night to wait for flights.  You can meet your sailor at the airport, take ID with you and get an airlines gate pass so you can wait at the gate with your sailor until departure.  Your sailor won't have exact flight arrangements until right before PIR.  Sometimes they don't fly out until Sunday (rare, but happens if they can't get flights) so we recommend that families stay until Sunday just in case.  If your sailor doesn't leave until Sunday, he/she will have Liberty on Friday and Saturday.

Where is the best place to get information about when our sons and daughters leave for their A School after PIR 6/6/14?

Comment by Candle&SignMakingMom on April 20, 2014 at 3:31pm

Happy Easter! My Daughter, SR left 4/9  Ship 11. Box came , and call was yesterday. She's in great spirits, and was really pleased that the food was better then she expected. Today (Sunday) She said is the day she can write. She has not got any of the mail that we have sent her yet.  We have booked our flights and room at the Navy Lodge. less then one mile from the graduation.She is going to A school on Monday following graduation there in GL.  Her recruiter Before she left, said that in A school she could have time before and after. But that was before she left... Now I am unable to get a def. answer whether we will be able to see her after  her A school on Monday and Tuesday, 

Comment by kimAZmom on April 20, 2014 at 12:43pm

I received her first phone call, yesterday as well. It seems there are quite a few ill recruits.

Comment by kimAZmom on April 20, 2014 at 12:42pm
