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."

Wow this is so different from the army. Is it a commercial flight he will take? My daughter told me that they were to wear their civilian clothes (again talking about Army) because the Army didn't want them to get any special treatment just because they were in the military. My thought is that they all DESERVE special treatment.

Good morning!! I'm noticing there are not a lot of Mass Communications Specialists Moms out there. If there are any please let me know. I'm praying we all have an easier day today, and I honestly feel like it has gotten a little easier. I'm not a super religious person by any means but honesty I have done a lot of praying lately and I truly believe that faith and NavyForMoms has kept me going. I don't feel so in the dark about what's going on with my son and knowing there are other moms going through the same emotions makes it feel likes it's ok and it's going to be ok. So thank you to all of you ladies out there for helping me to keep going everyday through this process.

Yes. Jay has to fly to CT after PIR. what do they wear when traveling. The Army had my daughter travel in her civilian clothes.

Greetings!

     "I will praise the Lord, Who counsels me;

      even at night my heart instructs me.

      I have set the Lord always before me.

      Because He is at my right hand,

      I will not be shaken."

                                               Psalm 16:7-8
