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."

Proud Navy mom from Hawk Point, MO (small town between Troy & Warrenton)  My SR will hopefully be a Sailor in a few days.  PIR 01/17/14 & I'm counting the days!

So sorry things didn't work out with the Navy. I hope your son has found a new calling in life. Best of luck to him in whatever he's doing. Please check in and say hello every now and then. I sure do miss you on here. And, you'll ALWAYS be Bobby's Super Proud Mom!

Actually Bobby is no longer in the Navy. Things didn't work out so well for him. That's why I went missing from here. I'd still like to check on my friends here but, normally not so ok with posting.

Funny about new campers. My hubby needed some work done to his camper and it was at Apache Village when the tornado hit there. Hubby ended up just trading it in on a new camper.

Btw, I still am Bobby's super proud mom.

Hey Bobbysproudmom so good to hear you.  You know me, I'm always ready to camp!!!!!  Little too chilly right now LOL!    The RV show in St. Louis starts in a couple of days and I'm hoping to go.  Hubby on the other hand is getting nervous I'll trade the old camper in for a new one!  How's your sailor doing? Nuke, right?  I still think of you as bobbys super proud mom!

Comment by bobbysproudmom on January 7, 2014 at 12:20pm

Hey Joshmom are you ready to go camping?
