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."

Hey, Cheryl! We are about 2 1/2 hours west of St. Louis and a little south. We are about 45 min W of Jefferson City. It would be great to meet you! I know there are other moms in our area. Where are you ladies? Plenty of kids go through both the Jeff City recruiter and the Sedalia recruiter. Where was your young person's recruiter?

Great Jane! So how do we get one going...just pick a date and place and post it?

Mommacat How far are you from St. Louis? I am about 60 west of St Louis so I don't think you are that far from me. I hope we can get a meet and greet together soon.

Oh, we are right at the top of the Ozarks, about halfway across the state. Does nothing go on here in MO?

Hi, fellow Missourians! I'm out in the boonies on my very slow internet connection, plowing along through the groups list looking for Missouri ladies. You ARE here! A meet and greet? Will there be another one? That would be great.
