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."

Thanks alot I appreciate it.  Just waiting to find out about graduation right now.  And of course going crazy wondering how he is doing.  I have been writing lots of letters and sending newspaper clippings.

Hello and Welcome Andrea. Hope you enjoy it here. the group is somewhat quiet but feel free to tell us about yourself, your SR or anything you'd like to get off your chest.

Good morning,

About 8 days before my son comes home.  Hopefully he won't be coming home to a mess.  We had broken pipes in the basement, so jack hammered up the floor, replaced the pipe, and now waiting for the cement to dry so I can put the carpet back and DUST.  Not fun! 

Welcome Andrea and Miche72 and Julie.  I am in Co Springs.

Comment by Andrea Ship12 Div296 on July 29, 2012 at 10:51pm

Hi I am new to Co Navy moms.  My son left July 18th.

Hi, new here, my dd is leaving in Feb.  So glad there is this site for questions and support.  Look forward to getting to know some of you.

Comment by apalamas on July 26, 2012 at 8:45pm

Haven't been posting for awhile, been busy keeping tabs on the "deployment" coming up.  My son will be home in Aug for 2 weeks. :)  He is looking forward to CO weather and away from WA weather.  He is hoping it stays hot while he is here.  I could do with some cooler weather!
