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."

Comment by Navy Mom (J) on April 22, 2019 at 10:54pm: Welcome Bambi! Some of us from the east valley meet at AJ's Fine Foods in Gilbert. It is at Dana Park, at Val Vista and Baseline Rd. We meet at 6:30 usually the 1st Sunday of the month. We meet on the patio. I know it will not be the 1st Sunday in May due to a conflict. But if you go to Facebook, there is a closed group that has this info. It is Proud Navy Moms of AZ. Here is the link

https://www.facebook.com/groups/593607240711570/

There are moms from all over the state there. You have to request to join, answer a couple questions etc. But that is where you will find different events.
