Welcome to USS MAKIN ISLAND's Facebook page! This page is intended to provide updated information about TEAM RAIDER. Team Raider!

Welcome to USS Makin Island's Official Facebook page. This page is intended to provide updated information, photos and videos to the friends and families of Team Raider Sailors and the world-wide public to whom we owe thanks and gratitude for such outstanding support.

Loose Lips Sink Ships! ANY discussion or speculation of the ship's location or anticipated inport dates before they're offically released may result in revocation of access to this page. Remember, the bad guys DO follow our facebook page too.

Comments are welcome and we ask that you follow our posting guidelines here. While this is an open forum, it's also a family friendly one, so please keep your comments and wall posts courteous, respectful and free from vulgarity. Comments and posts that do not follow these guidelines will be removed:

- Publicizing ship's location, planned movements and prospective in-port dates can be a violation of OPSEC and put the ship and crew at risk. The amount of allowable advance notice can vary depending on which port the ship is scheduled to visit, but the ship's Public Affairs staff will post movements and dates at the earliest releasable time. Just because your Sailor has told you about the ship's plans does not mean it's releasable to the public, so please don't discuss that information here unless it's already been officially posted.


- We do not allow graphic, obscene, explicit or racially offensive comments or submissions, nor do we allow comments that are abusive, hateful or intended to defame anyone or any organization.

- We do not allow solicitations or advertisements. This includes promotion or endorsement of any other group, page, financial, commercial or non-governmental agency. Similarly, we do not allow attempts to defame or defraud any other group, page, financial, commercial or non-governmental agency.

- We do not allow comments that suggest or encourage illegal activity.

- You participate at your own risk, taking personal responsibility for your comments, your username and any information provided.

- For Official Use Only (FOUO), classified, pre-decisional, proprietary or business-sensitive information should never be discussed here. Don’t post personnel lists, rosters, organization charts or directories. This is a violation of privacy.

The appearance of external links on this site does not constitute official endorsement on behalf of the U.S. Navy or Department of Defense.

You are encouraged to share any content on this page on your own Facebook page, blog, web site or other communication/publication. If you do so, please credit the person who authored the content as a courtesy (photo or article byline can be U.S. Navy or MC2 Joe Smith, for example).

This is an open group which welcomes visitors of all ages and cultural backgrounds. Out of respect for other visitors, please keep your comments and wall posts courteous. We will remove comments and posts that are obscene, abusive, hateful, encourage illegal activity, or advertise or promote a commercial product or service.
