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."

Hi everyone! I'm new. My son,currently completing A school at Great Lakes, just received orders for Pearl Harbor. He is very excited. None of us have ever been to Hawaii so I need to find out as much as possible. Happy to find this group.

Hi all just wanted to share this link I found for the 75th anniversary.
https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10154621266470479&i...
If the link doesn't work I found the link on Hawaii News Now FB page.
Brought tears to my eyes. My mom was born on Oahu and was 3 when this happened. She has passed on but this is something I will never forget.

Hello fellow Navy Moms! Looks like it was time for all of us to check-in! Glad to everyone are well :-D
Little Bing, great question! If you know of videos from the 75th anniversary, please share! I've never been to Hawaii since our son arrived in May 2014, but I always say someday...
All my best to everyone, MerryChristmas!!

It was such a thrill to see the news clips of Pearl Harbor having only been there one month ago with our son and his family. My son was on the USS Missouri out of Groton, so touring the Missouri in HI was an honor for all of us...;)))

Hello everyone, just wondering if anyone knows where I can watch the 12/7 75th anniversary ceremony from today? My son was in the color guard and I would love to catch a glimpse of him if possible.
