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."

for
N4M's Community Guidelines
and
OPSEC.

~OPSEC OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance.

~N4M’s also has Community Guidelines just like any other social media.

~Please take the time to read the OPSEC and N4M’s Community Guidelines.

~A quick note here, from the N4M’s CG’s:

• Don’t Jeopardize the Safety of Our Sailors: Remember OPSEC (Operational Security) (Don’t Sink Ships With Loose Lips) This site and all content posted on it are viewable to everyone on the Internet. This doesn’t mean you can’t share things about your Sailor – but too many details can put Sailors in harm’s way. The following are examples of red flags and should not be shared within this community either by posting or sending via a Group message:

• Sailors’ last names. This includes your username if you share the same last name as your son or daughter.

Some Suggestions:

~If your last name is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended for you to use in your username for your own personal security. This is your option. It is also not a good idea to use an email address as your username for personal security reasons.

~First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember, everyone can see it and someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture to not include your Recruit at least for the duration of BC. Again, your option

~It is also a good idea to make your settings for your Profile Page "viewable only to your friends"

I am happy that you will have your daughter home for Christmas CatMom509. I missed coming home for Christmas twice while I was in. It is a sad experience.

Comment by Lloyd on December 8, 2013 at 7:47pm

My son will be going to FC A-School and IT C-School following boot camp.

Comment by Lloyd on December 8, 2013 at 7:44pm

Plus. I met my wife in the Philippines. That would top the list. We have five kids, three boys and two girls.Our SR is our oldest son.

Comment by Lloyd on December 8, 2013 at 7:41pm

I was a gunners mate. I was in for eight years counting reserve time. I was stationed at Little Creek Amphibious Base in Virginia. I still have contact with my three closest Navy friends. We still visit each other even though we are all scattered from coast to coast. One of these friends retired as a senior chief just last month. The thing I loved most about the Navy was the camaraderie. So many fond memories.

Comment by CatMom509 on December 8, 2013 at 7:10pm

Lloyd,

Yep, your mom was right!  It's coming on the first year since my IT daughter left for Boot Camp on January 9, 2013 and it just boggles my mind she has 4-5 more years to go!!  I just live for the next time she has leave, which will be the week before and of Christmas this year!!

What was your rating and how long were you enlisted?  What did you like most or what was the most exciting place you visited?

Comment by CatMom509 on December 8, 2013 at 7:03pm

Hi Friends!

     "Let your light so shine before men,

      that they may see your good works

      and glorify your Father in Heaven."

SW, Just got the call that my son is Ship 02 Div 911!

Comment by Lloyd on December 8, 2013 at 11:19am

Dexter93. our sons are in the same division. I am glad that I can expect the letter any day. We have not had mail the last two days because of snow. Can you please post the official PIR date so the veteran moms can update the info for all the groups? 

Comment by Dexter93 on December 8, 2013 at 11:03am
My son is ship 13 div 069.
So happy to have received the letter yesterday!
Comment by Lloyd on December 7, 2013 at 8:31pm

My mother once told me that my years in the Navy were the most difficult years she lived through. I didn't think much about what she had said at the time, but I sure have an appreciation for her words now.
