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."

It is the week of Sept 6-12. The most fun event could be with the Navy Band as it rocks Union Station! Keep tuned in for more events.

Comment by Mommacat on April 5, 2010 at 7:02pm: Yep, we are open. Lunch, supper, in between. Just would love to connect with more of you ladies.!

Comment by CherylB on April 3, 2010 at 9:40am: Sailor Dave's Mom I sent you and Illinoismom a msg about meeting on the 13th. I said dinner but just noticed you said lunch. I think mommacat and I are pretty open.

Hope to hear from other MO peeps. Have a great day all.

Comment by Mommacat on April 3, 2010 at 12:09am: I'll holler at Cheryl and let her know. We'd like to have as many of you as we can. It's depressing trying to figure out where everyone has gone. The moms from my son's ship group have disappeared, too. Sigh.

Comment by Mommacat on March 28, 2010 at 11:25pm: I'm seconding Cheryl's invitation. We would absolutely LOVE if some of you Moms would poke your heads up and meet with us!!

Comment by CherylB on March 27, 2010 at 12:06am: If anyone is interested in getting together for a casual lunch/dinner on April 13th or 14th
in the St.Louis area let me know. Thanks.

Comment by CherylB on March 22, 2010 at 10:38pm: Thanks:) Please keep us posted on when and where. Really appreciate it!

Comment by Mommacat on March 15, 2010 at 10:26pm: I would love to come to a Met and Greet! Let me know, and I will do my best to be there. Thanks, Cheryl. I, too would love to meet as many of you ladies as I can. Makes me feel so much better knowing I"m not alone.

Comment by CherylB on March 15, 2010 at 2:55pm: Mommacat his recruiter was in Washington MO.
I think there is a Meet and Greet being planned someplace close to Lambert Airport in St. Louis for April 6th I will let you know what comes of it. This is being held by a mom that lives out of state but is coming here to visit family. I will plan one for the summer time soon. I would like to get to know as many mom/wives/gf as possible!
