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 know that we all tend to get busy and we just share these posts on the Main BC page but I wanted to put this on here so we can have a single post that we can keep updated but not clutter up the Boot Camp information page as much.  There is also a completely separate Prayer group on this site: https://navyformoms.ning.com/group/christian-navy-moms that you are welcome to join!  As with all pages it's only as busy as the people who post there, So the more the merrier!!

Since I may have caused worry and concern earlier I'll Start off this post with a Praise!! 
I shared earlier about a young couple I have known since she was a pre-teen.  He's a Sailor on the TR who tested positive for COVID-19 and was super sick so she recorded a song for him.  ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFFddQ8IWTc&feature=youtu.be&am... )
They were glad to hear that he seemed to be getting better until early Saturday morning. They got word that he was in the "Red Zone" where the inflammation caused by this virus can cause sudden organ failure.

** UPDATE 12:13 am Mountain time** "

Get ready for it...AJ is no longer in the “RED ZONE” for organ failure. A wonderful answer to all of your faithful prayers. Our family is so very thankful for your covering of AJ with prayer ... we cannot begin to express our gratitude! Only our Compassionate Father could bring about such a marvelous change in his condition!

What a great way to begin our Easter Eve!!

There are still over 500 ill men and women from the USS Teddy Roosevelt in Guam that are in need of prayer.
The medical teams have grown in size to help accommodate this level of need. This is also an amazing answer to all of our prayers."

Pray for their healing and safety! There are Many in need but he's "Ours" and we pray for them all!"

What a way to Celebrate Easter!!! He is Risen!!! Oh Yes!! He is Risen Indeed!!!!


This will continue to be a page for you to share prayers. We'll try and keep the posts to BC messages moving forward and I encourage those of you who pray to join us on the other page. We may be Christian Moms but we do not push our beliefs on each other.  All are welcome!  Know that I want this to be a safe place for all our Moms going through this tough time!!

Blessings and Peace!

Praise to AJ --- happy he is no longer in red zone.  Happy Easter.   Listening to you tube song now; it's beautiful.

This is wonderful news! 

BelovedbyHim - I was glad to learn earlier of AJ's removal from "the Red Zone." Our prayers continue for the families of the sailors in Guam. Thank you for starting this discussion and opportunity for our BC Moms to have a place to post and express concerns about their loved ones.

It's my honor.  I hope this page will be a blessing to all our moms on this site.

Prayers for Phoenixmom as she continues to take care of things on the Homefront and for favor as they continue to work to get her Bud home.
