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 Marcy ~ Corpsman Mom on January 13, 2015 at 8:43pm: Zman's mom, I don't know why that is and unfortunately I can't check it since it appears differently to me as the one who set up the page. I know it worked for Gale from Tucson. Are you coming, I hope? I'll pass it along to Sarah!

Fare Sale Today Only 12/5 on Frontier

Posted by cprmom on December 5, 2014 at 12:39pm

I just got an email and checked it out and Frontier airlines is having a special sale today only (for travel between tomorrow and Dec 18). From Phx to Chicago it is 49.00 each way. They have different specials to/from different cities. I know most on here probably don't need to go to Chicago but pass this around on other pages if you can. They are doing 19.00 fares from other cities. Their website is frontierairlines dot com (frontier by itself is a utility company).

Comment by Marcy ~ Corpsman Mom on November 14, 2014 at 12:47am: Welcome Carmen! What's your sailor's rating and where are you stationed?
