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."

I agree with the other Brenda. My son went to Gulfport Mississippi for about a month too. That was just a few months ago. Hope this helps. Brenda

Lucretia - our son's been in MSRON 2 for going on 2 years. He's on one of the boat teams and is a gunnersmate. I believe most of the MAs like your son are on security teams and not necessarily attached to boats but I could easily be mistaken. We can message privately and I can tell you more - I don't want to put a lot of specifics about their previous deployments on here as it's public. Welcome to the group!

My son just received his orders to MSRON 2 in Portsmouth,VA. I am not sure what to expect. Any information on MSRON 2 would be very much appreciated.

I just recieved orders to MSRON 7 out of Guam!!

Thank you Brenda. My son Jesse is an engineman and worked very hard to get to choose this job. Finished sencond in his class at A school. Did not realize when he joinded he would choose such a dangerous job. But I guess I should not be surprised he always loved the dangerous stuff. LOL like mountain biking down a side of the mountain where there was no trail. His heart belongs to fire fighting and emt. So he does get to follow his heart alittle in this job. So what postion does your son hold in msron 4 Brenda? Thank you again for the information. I do feel alittle more at ease. How long has your son been in?

Brenda! My name is Brenda also - and. . . my son is part of MSRON 4. You will know where you son is - as much as he tells you where he is. Mine has been on three deployments (6 - 8 months each) and has had the opportunity to see MANY different countries! Most of the time I don't know where he is - or I find out after he has left there. One time he did get to spend several weeks on the islands that Prince William and Kate are honeymooning!!!

Good Moring All
My name is Brenda and I have a son Jess that has joined the wonderful outfit of msron 4. I just do not know what to expect when he is deplied. Do we as his family at least get to know he is going. I know there will be times we will not know where he is at. But I feel like I am in the dark and scared. If any one can help me feel a little more at ease would be greatly appreciated. Look forward to getting to know some of you. Have a great day. Brenda
