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."

I'm going to JAX in June and plan to stay at the Navy Lodge for a night or 2.  Has anyone stayed there?  My son says it's pretty reasonable.

We may not be very good but it's a way to get out of the house, exercise, socialize and have some fun! We're very desperate!!!!! Games start the week of the 21st and go through the end of May, so if you moving (Kursten) and would like to join part way through that would be great too!!!!!!

Wow Deidra!  That can be a VERY scary thing!  Do you know what command he is in?  You will need to call Fleet & Family Services 904-542-2766 and request contact information on his command Ombudsman, she will track him down for you and do the best possible to get him to contact you!  Good luck, I hope everything is ok!

yep. my wife and i watch Army Wives and i agree. I just need to meet others cuz i know it isn't gonna be easy and it's always best to get to know other people who can relate.
Comment by Kalynn on March 8, 2011 at 8:39pm
Nope you don't see that often...it reminds me of army wives (Roland). But you and your wife are welcome to meet up with us as well for family game night...there will be active duty guys for you to bond with.
Comment by Proud Navy husband on March 8, 2011 at 8:20pm
are there any wives that can help me meet other military spouses. My wife is gonna deploy in May and i'd like to know some good people. My wife is the service member and i'm the spouse. Bet you don't see that everyday.

stay safe and God Bless
