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."

Comment by Cheryl on March 23, 2011 at 8:40pm: Cindy, I know you are really enjoying your time with your son right now. Where is the USS Maryland ported at.

Comment by Tonya on March 23, 2011 at 2:17am: Cheryl - Thank You!

Comment by Cheryl on March 22, 2011 at 9:13pm: Welcome T. Denny and Cindy. I from Hanging Rock. My son is on the USS Comstock and he is on his second deployment.

Comment by Tonya on March 22, 2011 at 2:57pm: I'm in Winston Salem, near the High Point, Kernersville area. I have a daughter on the USS Ronald Reagan's Launch Crew and was wanting to get together with some other moms in the area for some care package meetups. Thought it would be nice to send some extra stuff for the people who work with our children, but don't receive care packages while deployed.

Comment by Tonya on March 22, 2011 at 1:15pm: I'm new to the site and was wondering if there were any moms near Winston Salem.....

Comment by Mossgirl4 on March 22, 2011 at 1:04pm: It is a small world, isn't it? The older I get, the smaller it becomes. :)

Comment by Mossgirl4 on March 16, 2011 at 9:36am: This is why I love NC - I can get to the mountains or the beach in a matter of hours!

@Navymom09 - I have 2 sisters in Morganton. One out 181 and another on Morehead St (she teaches at Table Rock Middle School). I love it there too!

@Angela - my son is currently going through A-school at Port Hueneme, CA for CM. How about everyone else?
