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 Barbara J..... Many tears - many good ones - I'm just soft-hearted, so it's hard for me to hold them back. Thanks for the kind words.  Glad to meet other "GA Moms".

Hey Ga. Moms! Sitting in church this morning- I say a young man walk in with a Navy sweat suit on. After church I went up and introduced myself to him and his parents.I talked to them for a few minutes and told her about us Ga. Navy Moms and invited her to come aboard. I hope she will. She seemd to be very nice.Her son leaves for boot camp this summer. I am going to talk to her again I hope soon.I told her that we are on fb-N4M-Navy Moms.I found her on fb and asked her to be my friend-so maybe she will reply shortly.

Thanks Donna.  Your son is stationed at Kings Bay? Apologies..I am a rookie here...what does it mean to be pinned with his dolphins?

Florence I will be there and I think Dennis and maybe Jon. I see we have some Moms who have sons/daughters at Great Lakes. Here are some pics that they posted on FB today. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150089034499197&set=a..... I'm extremely freezing just looking at all that snow.

Thanks Mary....I am praying for those trying to make it to PIR this weekend.  I hope all goes well for everyone! 
Comment by CC0727 on February 3, 2011 at 3:30pm
Mary thank you very much!!!!  My son will be going to King's Bay soon and will need a new phone but unfortunately can't get it until after he is there due to phone contract dates.  I appreciate your help : )

Hi all, hope everyone is well or more importantly your sailors are safe!

 

CCO...here's some Verizon options for the area:

 

WALMART #00836 

6586 Hwy 40 East
Saint Marys, GA 31558
(912) 510-9216

5 miles   See it on a Map

 

 

 

Cellular Sales - St Marys 
Premium Retailer *

1381 Hwy 40 East
Saint Mary S, GA 31558
(912) 882-1010

 

KDB - don't know anyone heading to that PIR date but can you imagine those that have PIR this Friday?  Chicago is a mess and I'm not sure if families will be able to make it there this week or not.

 

Florence, I'm putting the date on my calendar but I will need to confirm as the event gets closer because after a two year break, I am a ...working gal again!  Just accepted a great offer today and meeting with them tomorrow to work out the specifics and start date.  It will involve some travel so I need to get my schedule under control before making plans.

Any GA moms heading to PIR on 2-11-11? 
Comment by KDB1 on February 1, 2011 at 8:47am
Thanks for the info Florence.  I think this run will be my goal to get back in shape after winter hibernation! :)
