While there, complete your Profile so you can post and share photos and videos of your Sailor and share stories with other moms!

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 BunkerQB on September 2, 2010 at 12:56pm: Wow. Congrats to Ryan and family. What a day.

Comment by BunkerQB on August 31, 2010 at 12:14pm: THANK GOD. LOL. Did we get any responses from the recruiting offices?

Comment by BunkerQB on August 30, 2010 at 12:55am: Katy, since no one uses the chat box, how about deleting it? The chat box makes downloading slow and often creates issues for some computers. I had it on the SF site and more than one person complained about it. Wish I had been with you on Saturday.
