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'm here too. Anyone want to meet for late lunch? I am now working in Lafayette. Get off work at 1-2. I still live in Longmont. Closed my bakery due to poor location. Love my new job as Chef 2 for a farm to table organic meals on wheels.

It's active, I think we find other ways to get ahold of each other and talk that way instead of through here. I would love to find other moms in Colorado and even somewhat close. I only know a couple of others personally. There is one that I live really close to and her son has been in several years. The other is one of my son's best friends' moms and she's in FL.

So is Colorado Mom's even active anymore? Is everyone doing so well that this page isn't needed? Just wondering.

Welcome JulieTimsMom. My sailor has been in 2 years. He will be leaving for his first deployment soon. My son was also 26 when he joined. He's is doing well. His age will make it easier. I am in SE Auroa.

Welcome!! I am in Westminster. My son is a GM and shipped out on his first deployment November 2nd. He is 19 and has been in a little over a year and up to this point it has all been school. We are all very excited because he is finally finished with school (for now anyway) and starting on his journey of travelling the world!
