OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Hi Catherine - I joined this site years ago - I just don't post - rarely-never.

I come and read sometimes - when I have a little extra time.

I come from a Navy family - my dad was in for 23 yrs., my brother was in for 23 yrs., my son has been in now for 14 yrs. and just re-upped for another 3 yrs.

Hi, I hope you can address our concerns. We are with Molly's Adopt A Sailor. The creator is inactive and we are concerned that if "Shell" is deleted due to inactivity, the "Molly's" page will be lost. That would be a TERRIBLE thing for the sailors we adopt every month.

Can you advise please??

NavyMoms Admin,

I just want to express my extreme gratitude to all those who worked to get our website back up and running!!!!  I've missed my contact with my Navy Sisters!!!  If there is anything I can do to help please reach out to me!!!!

Hi, It is my understanding that N4Ms has had a change in the supporting organization for this site and now no new members can join? As a navy mother, I am here to say this site has been of the utmost importance to me as I endeavor to support my son through his naval career. This news is distressing. Is there anything we can do as users of this website to maintain this system? Is there anyone we need to contact? I cannot stress the importance of N4M for both parents and sailors. Please support this vital service.

Hi Erin,

I don't see where my zip code is posted and other than my city (does that need to be removed?) am not sure what identifying information is seen by others. I didn't think I had posted any of that. Have you seen mistakes in my profile?

At 2:06pm on June 30, 2016, B'sNukeMoM⚓️MMN(Vet) said…

I've sent you a couple of messages - trying to find out the "new member" situation....any info is greatly appreciated!
