Do you find it weird that this site will not let you delete content? Are you at all concerned that your data will be on this site forever?

I typically wait until I PCS until I accept to keep the distance. Then it is just about networking and keeping in touch. I try to keep my FB account just to humor for the most part with a wise thoughtful post for Memorial and Veteran's Day.
It isn't a good practice to be on Facebook during work time, I heard of many people getting trouble because of giving out information in reference to their job, slandering or talking about people in their work area, and/or stupid enough to brag about faking sick to get out of work for whatever reason. Facebook can be a good resource for reconnecting with relatives and friends long distance and getting to know relatives you never met before, but there are a lot of drama on Facebook too.
Now that I'm retired as well as a lot of my military friends, we FB to keep in touch which is great! I limit my civilian work FB friending for many of the same reasons that you have stated about being on AD.

Similarly, being involved in Boy Scouts and other youth activities, I don't accept FB friends with any Scouts or others under 18 simply because of the potential for impropriety. You have to be careful today!
