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."

~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"

My son is in A school Pensacola. Have joined a group, but there doesn't look like much activity on it. My son had been texting my husband non stop since he landed on Saturday. They sure are enjoying some freedom :)

Yes my son is in A school in San Antonio too. We live here so we were able to meet him at the base this morning. It was awesome. I have to join the a school group too. The Navy dorms looked nice on the outside and so many sailors were hanging out at the exchange. They were enjoying some freedom before tomorrow .

Joining some new groups for A -school and for San Antonio corpsman so I can keep up with what will my son's experiences down there will be like. Any other mom's from our group have any sons down in San Antonio? Talked to him several times already. He gave me a Facetime tour of his room. Very cool! A lot less demands there for them.

I watched the live-stream from home. So proud of our Sailors! I saw all the guests come down for their Salors after the ceremony. I am still crying, feeling terrible for my son not having anyone there......
