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 see you found Darcys group. It is a great group that gets together at least every other month. I look forward to seeing you there.

Are there any groups around me that get together? I would love to personally meet with other Mom's going through the same things I am. Reach out if you know of any or are in any such groups, thanks! God bless you :)
