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.  I took some time to look over the website for the ombudsman.  It has some helpful information.

Fort Gordon is located in Augusta GA

Comment by FLA NavyMom1501 on August 26, 2013 at 10:04am

Where is Ft. Gordon?

My sailor said he will be going to somewhere in Georgia.

Comment by NIOCGAOMBUDSMAN on August 26, 2013 at 9:59am

Hi Navy Families,

If your sailor is going to Fort Gordon after DLI please check out our Ombudsman Website. Let me know if you have any questions.

Now that my Sailor is in CA, I'm wondering when Christmas vacation will be.  He said they get two weeks.  Anyone have info on that?

Comment by FLA NavyMom1501 on June 9, 2013 at 7:44pm

Sailor Boy J's Mom -

Thanks.  I hope mine loves it, too.  I know I would!!

Comment by Fancy Nancy on June 8, 2013 at 9:18am

So I find out my son's Mac isn't working.  I can't imagine my son not being able to listen to iTunes, etc.  Of course, Apple can't do anything since the laptop is deployed!  Any sound suggestions on what to do?  1 year warranty is up on July 10--it was his gift for PIR.  Any idea if he can send it home to take in for repair?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

NavyMom1501 - My son has been in Monterey for about a month now.  He loves it!

Comment by FLA NavyMom1501 on June 1, 2013 at 5:22pm

Hello everyone.   My SR is going to "A" school in Monterey very soon.  His PIR is 6/14.  Anyone have any tips for me?

Comment by Fancy Nancy on May 8, 2013 at 7:24pm
Thanks a million, Deb. I appreciate your help!
Take care.
