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."

Good for you Lynn :) please thank your son for his service.

From what i understand the Navy will have 2 leaves for Christmas sounds like either our Sailor will be home for Christmas or new years but not both if i understood my son correctly. we will see.

Carebear that's great that you are making Christmas plans. Ethan has missed the last 3 so I'm hoping he will be here for Christmas and Addie's 4th birthday!

Marianne and Countrywoods, at least you ladies will have each other when the next deployment comes.

I'm glad everyone is settling back into a routine. My sailor will be here in two weeks.I am super excited!

This group has given me soooo many great friends and for that I will always be grateful. Maybe someday we can all get together for a reunion and meet face to face! You are all wonderful!

YAYYY Kim! I am so excited!! I bet Addie cannot wait!!!

 

NavyMom. I do not know it but I am sure you can contact the Ombudsmans and ask them for it they should know for sure! Or one of the ALFA board members!

Comment by Kim (Ethan's Mom) on September 24, 2012 at 6:10pm
I think the only way it would get on Facebook is if someone reposted it. I would hope that if you asked for something to not be reposted that everyone would respect your wishes but it is an open group so anyone could see if they went looking.
I agree about this group being great! I have many friends through it!
My sailor is finally getting to come home in a few weeks!! We are all excited!!
Comment by carebear77630@yahoo.com on September 24, 2012 at 2:33pm

Comment by countrywoods on September 22, 2012 at 8:06am

Ladies it has been an honor to be part of your group, my son is back at Lemoore, and I hope to continue to hear from some of the great friends I have met during Landons deployment. Thank you all for your wisdom, listening ear, and just plain friendships. Please keep in touch, Landon will be attached to the Ronald Reagan in the next deployment which hopefully wont be until next December. Take care and God Bless you all.
