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"

shannon:  Here is a little more info on phasing up, posted by one of our former N4Moms veteran members:

Comment by diannep on March 31, 2014 at 8:35am

Yes, shannon, I believe that he should be phased up by then...but of course, no guarantees since for discipline, they will delay their phase ups!  But he may be motivated to be "a good boy" since he knows you are coming up there in June! 

:-)

Not sure if he would be allowed overnights by then, but he should be able to go off base during the weekends. 

Good Morning All !

Comment by shannon on March 30, 2014 at 11:40pm
Thanks diannep! He will be heading there sometime after April 11 :) We were thinking of going in mid June. Do u think that will b a safe time? That will make it almost 2 months there? It stinks bc alot of places are already gone we wanted to book...
Comment by diannep on March 30, 2014 at 11:19pm

shannon:  They have to phase up in A School before they are allowed off base during the weekend.  Usually takes about 3 weeks or more.  They may be allowed to have on-base visits before then.  Depending on how long his A School is, he may be there long enough to have overnight weekend visits within a certain radius of the base.  Once he goes through INDOC upon arrival at his A School base, he will have more info for you.
