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 Paymaster on July 4, 2013 at 10:14am: Happy Independence day! Remember all that served before us and all that are currently serving. Enjoy your day.

Comment by Vickyrun on July 2, 2013 at 11:17am: I was in Elk Grove Saturday, stop there for an In-n-Out Burger and fries. Yummy! I helped a single girlfriend, she drove her Dodge Neon to her new place while I drove her Lexus SUV. Then on the way back she bought me lunch!

Comment by Paymaster on June 30, 2013 at 6:59pm: Drew's Mom glad you like it. Lincoln Linda we missed you too!

Comment by MOMofDREW2.0 on June 30, 2013 at 1:05pm: I meet Navy Moms yesterday and I liked it!

Comment by Paymaster on June 29, 2013 at 10:44pm: So good to see everyone and to meet Drew Mom! Of course our time went way to fast!

Comment by SamisMom on June 29, 2013 at 11:21am: Hello! Sorry I'm not on much - work too much and can't get on at work. :o( But I was thinking maybe a Saturday morning somewhere to meet up here? Oh! I'm in Meadow Vista which is about 15 minutes from Auburn...want to meet in Auburn? Another mom I met on here, JanaisMom, lives in Auburn and we have been meeting at Starbucks where we gab for a couple of hours. What do you all think?

I am available next Saturday, the 6th pretty much anytime. Let me know what you think!! :o)

My SR is graduating on the 19th of July. Anyone from Ship 9, Division 265 here?

Comment by JudyM on June 28, 2013 at 12:17pm: Hope to see you all tomorrow. My son from Japan is leaving (boo hoo), not sure when we have to get him to the airport. It has been a wonderful week.

All those with health concerns, my prayers are with you.

Can't wait to meet all the new ladies.

Comment by Paymaster on June 27, 2013 at 12:52pm: NS....sorry to hear you are not feeling well, as always you are in my prayers. I don't see why we can't do one in Auburn since so many of the newer mom's live in the area.

Ok Placer/Nevada County mom's - if you would pick a date and a place to meet we can all get together in your neck of the woods. If possible I would suggest something not to far off the freeway and also someplace that won't mind us sitting and chatting for a bit (more like hours). Ok, someone take the lead on this please. You are always more than welcome to ask for my help, I can do the event on the site. You can also Friend Me and we can PM personal info.

Comment by NevadaSierra on June 27, 2013 at 12:39pm: It is an honor to be your friend Vicky! You are an amazing Mom, thank you for all that you share and encourage me.

Hey girls, I have some health stuff happening - please if you are comfortable send a prayer up for me. Hopefully, it is nothing to scary, and just my body responding to my life style (high stress for too long).

Jody, we could do a M&G at Ikes - but I doubt it would be successful - how many of you would drive to Nevada City???

Maybe somewhere in Auburn to catch some of our newbees? However, that is a very log jog for Vicky, and those in Amador County (I hope that I got that right).

Have a great day.

Comment by Vickyrun on June 27, 2013 at 12:21pm: Sorry I can't make it Saturday but I wll be there in spirit. You all are the best friends a girl could have:
