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 CatMom509 on December 15, 2014 at 5:32pm: Hello Friends,

     "I know the Lord is always with me.

      I will not be shaken, for He is right beside me."

                                                         Psalm 16:8

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on December 15, 2014 at 4:43pm: One other little piece of business.

If you are an IE user and are having problems loading pics or any other settings issues...switch to Chrome or Safari.

This may happen when you try to download your Vehicle Gate Pass as well. If you have trouble switch to another browser. Military websites can be "picky".

***Sidebar on the VGP - never share the password as it is a breach of security and remember to type it in in ALL CAPS.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on December 15, 2014 at 3:17pm: For now, I'll just post the general info up above in a Discussion. It's the same thing as far as location and times. This way the Members that only use this site have the info.

Comment by diannep on December 15, 2014 at 2:17pm: Ladies, I just sent Sarge an email asking that he please post whatever MeetandGreet dates he has on FB on here too. So be patient! Keep checking the EVENTS section below and to the left to see when you date is up!

Comment by diannep on December 15, 2014 at 2:11pm: Good Afternoon!

Comment by diannep on December 15, 2014 at 2:11pm: maryjo: That is great that Sarge posted his MeetandGreet on FB, but it cuts out all of the ladies on HERE who are not on FB. I will send him a message and ask that he please get his groups up for N4Moms too. No one should be left out just because they choose not to be on FB......

Comment by maryjo on December 15, 2014 at 12:18pm: Sarge has posted the Meet and Greet already on facebook for 1/8 and is taking RSVP's there. Also, @willsmom93 we have an EZ pass from OH and have used it on toll roads in many other states (WV, NC, VA), so I assume we can use it in IL too...but maybe we ought to check the EZ pass website?

Comment by willsmom93 on December 15, 2014 at 8:11am: Does anyone know if you can use an EZ Pass from NY on the toll roads in Illinois?

Comment by CatMom509 on December 15, 2014 at 5:04am: Everyone,

I just put up my "PERTINENT PIR TIPS" up in the Discussion Forum. Please check it out for any tips you can use for your own PIR~~
