Deployed Spouse Club?!

Question

Just curious, my DH is deploying and I was wondering if there are online forums or groups or even ways to find local women who also have deployed spouses? 
It would be cool to find women whose spouse is deployed on the same ship as my DH ...

Answer

Finding other wives and girlfriends and even the mothers of the guys is the best. You'll appreciate and love them like family in a way like no one else in your life!

Answer

So Yokosuka Japan for 7th fleet? What ship? We came from 7th fleet and most ships have a fb page to keep up with other spouses and they get together quite frequently.

Answer

Is your husband on a ship? You said fleet so it made me think that. If he is look on Facebook. Here in San Diego there is a Facebook group for all the ship's wives to talk. I left it though because there was way too much drama on deployment. By the end we weren't allowed to talk about gifts or if we talked to our husband. Nothing because it made other people jealous and angry. It ended up being weeks of nothing and random what should I wear to homecoming posts. No thanks lol

Answer

Your best bet is getting to know the other wives with husbands in his unit. Be careful finding groups from outside sources and online. People prey on spouses of the deployed because they know you're alone. Also, think OPSEC.

Answer

Bambi, you're so helpful!!!

Answer

I've learned that most if not all units have an FRG group so that would be the easiest thing to me. Get close to the spouses of the those in his unit. I'm sure there's other groups or something on base
