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."

Hi, Pattyb! Welcome. Pretty quiet group here these days. Imm goin to the packing party tomorrow in Largo and I know it's too far for you ..is there a North FL group? Not that you can't be here but maybe they have get togethers a packing parties there, too. :) I got an email from my sailor today (he's on the USS Ronald Reagan and is an Aviation Mechanic) and has been gone since 2/3) so I'm very happy today! You are in for an amazing journey with your sailor -- lots of pride and missing themm soooooo much! Jerr was in Pensacola for A school and then Norfolk and then Pt. Mugu and then USS RR and in Japan and this was all in the 1st year! Things happen fast and things happen slow! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Also - other great groups here -- :)
