There are also some useful LinkedIn groups that provide mentorship to transitioning vets that I enjoy!

Bragg. Both of those are connected thru FB.<br /><br />I stay away from the political sites and blogs that a good many of my friends and former miltary associates I served with are involved in; Primarily because I refuse to get into the name calling, and loss of respect for one another that goes on when it comes to political issues of the day. To me, really it's Sad, so many stoop so low....over a difference of opinions! 1SG Private RallyPoint Member Sun, 11 Jan 2015 20:15:01 -0500 2015-01-11T20:15:01-05:00 Response by LTJG Robert M. made Jan 11 at 2015 8:41 PM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/do-you-participate-in-other-social-media-besides-rallypoint?n=413183&urlhash=413183 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Linked-In, Twitter, Facebook &amp; RP.

I prefer RP, but skim Facebook as my family and friends from high school and college are on there. I'm also on Twitter and Instagram but I scan twitter and post pics on Instagram. I have to pull myself sometimes off of RP. I have the app on my phone and read it on the train to work every day. When that tone goes off, I have to look and see who liked my comment or sent me a message. It truly does suck me in. It is how I used to be with Pinterest. It's like you enjoy one thread and like it and the next thing you know, you are slipping down that rabbit hole!

Additionally, I'm not really big on the personal touch -- so to stay in contact with family, I let them have access to my private Facebook page.
