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 Ashia on May 20, 2010 at 9:06pm: I'm fairly positive the person who made that fb group is very, "selective" with whom she chooses to befriend.

Comment by Dana (David's Mom) on May 20, 2010 at 8:46pm: There is a group on Facebook "Charleston SC Navy Wives" . Check it out.

when you get assigned a house are the appliances included in the house or do i need to rent some or buy some...
any info would help

Comment by amanda on May 19, 2010 at 9:44pm: Hi ladies.
I have a huge favor to ask of anyone living in the area. I'll be in SC on June 10th and I was wondering if someone could give me a ride to and from my hotel (about 20 minutes away from base) around 8 at night so I could spend a few hours on base?

OR

if anyone knows of a pretty cheap (but not sketchy) taxi service? I have a few numbers but that doesn't really tell me much about how reliable or safe they are. I'll be traveling alone and hearing all those horror stories makes me weary.

I also know there is a bus service in SC but don't know if there is a bus station within walking distance from base?

Thanks so much!
