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 MtnSeabass on July 27, 2011 at 8:45pm: Any of you Colorado Moms have a recriut graduating on Sept 9th?

Comment by phoebe stg2 on July 21, 2011 at 5:27pm: Hello Everyone, Looks like coffee tomorrow. WooHoo!! I will have a Navy flag at the table starting at about 9:45. Love you all. Patricia

Comment by Cathy_ProudNavyMom on July 20, 2011 at 5:22pm: It is overwhelming, no doubt about that. We haven't had anyone in the family in the military for many years so I am learning a new language it seems sometimes. She is 21 and she was still uncertain about what she would be doing after A school. She went in as an undesignated Airman, so once A school starts she will have a chance to pick from several different types of work.

Comment by Cathy_ProudNavyMom on July 20, 2011 at 4:34pm: vramirez, give the recruiters in Littleton another chance and keep asking questions. They have been the absolute BEST support for me, my daughter just left for boot camp 3 weeks ago. They were great before and after - all three of them AND the Chief. :-) Before she left, I would set an appointment with them and take a list of questions I had. They were more patient than I deserved and answered everything!

I don't think I have commented here on this group until now but I've been lurking for a while, glad to see a little activity!

Comment by KathyMmom on July 20, 2011 at 1:37pm: Hi all - I'm Kathy, in the Denver metro area, and my son is leaving 8/9 - he will be out of the Castle Rock office and is SECF. Gail - is there still time to contribute to the cook book? I would love to if possible.

Good Evening Everyone!!

I have went on the cookbook site tonight and we have a total of 143 recipes. I am wanting about 500 but, we might not get there by June 30th. Here is the number of what we have so far:

Appetizers/Beverages total 18

Soup/Salad total 18

Vegetables total 10

Main Dishes total 33

Bread/Rolls total 10

Desserts total 39

Miscellaneous total 13

International total 2

Low Carb/Sugar Free total 1

I can move some of this around but I would like to have about 50 total in each section if possible. Please add when you can. We still have until June 30th do these. Starting this weekend I will get a price and start taking preorders for these cookbooks. we will have to pay for them when they are shipped to me so start thinking about how many you will need. These will make great christmas gifts.

thanks

linda

Need recipes by the end of June for the cookbook. This is the 3rd cook book. Please help us...go to the Navy Mom Cookbook group and there is an easy site to navigate to fill in your favorite recipes.

Comment by phoebe stg2 on May 10, 2011 at 10:42am: Good Morning Chris, I ended up bringing 28 cases, 35 bags...

I will continue to sew both so I will always have a supply on hand. I know you ran out on Saturday of both and some really nice person went out and bought more cases. So nice of them to do that.
