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."

My husband is on the USS Vicksburg CG 69. He's a QM. I moved to mayport for about 4 months and really didn't like it because he was underway a lot and I got lonely. I also have a 3 year old daughter. We moved back to Miami, FL. I will be going to school here and visiting him when he's not underway before their deployment. My husband has been in for only a year and mayport being his first base is pretty awesome. I really like the base a lot.

Hi Everyone! I just want to introduce myself and let you know how excited our family is that my son and New Daughter in Law will be stationed in Mayport, Florida soon. He is in San Antonion now just finishing his Hospital Corpsman training. We are all in Texas but can't wait to learn more about Florida and this beautiful Navy Base.

Hey everyone,
We just started a long deployment last month, and I could really use some new friends since I dont know anyone here. My one year old daughter and I love finding things to go, or just hanging out at home. If there is anyone out there looking to meet other family please email town_2202@yahoo.com There is so much to do here, just not as fun when you do it alone. Hope to hear from you,
Stephanie

Alyse, he's a Damage Controlman. We are so happy for him to be at Mayport; it's only a 4-5 hour drive from home.
