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."

Ladies......OMG, I'm getting soooo EXCITED!!!!!!! Can ya tell????? OK, does each division have a different color they are wearing? I see some are wearing white and some are wearing blue. What color are we to wear for ship 9 division 226? I think I'm reading navy blue???? Am I correct? Someone please let me know! I can't find the shirt Nancy found at Walmart, so I have to go with something else. I guess we aren't close enough to a Navy base here in Maryland to get them in our stores here - I don't get it because Norfolk is not too far from home here in Maryland.

Varlerie: It's never to late here at navyformoms. We have plenty of love and hugs to give around.
See you new comers at the meet and greet!!!
