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 utmust importance. Please take the time to read the Opsec and Community Guidelines. A quick note here: Last Names are never allowed on this site. If it is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended. First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but discouraged as their RDC's read this site and can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture.

Comment by WandaG on October 1, 2011 at 8:17pm: Congrats Flbradybunch on your phone call!!! :o) It's amazing, no form letter, nor the 1st letter but you got a call. That should make up a little for all the frustration you've been going through. And you got a call on the weekend! How awesome is that. I hope I get mine after work or on the weekend. I'm so afraid of missing her call. I don't get a signal at work especially in my work area. :o(

Comment by flbradybunch (Corpsman Mom) on October 1, 2011 at 8:09pm: joan46 - our kids are together and I got a call from my SR today too! I was so excited to hear from him - and so surprised since it was not week 3 yet!

Comment by WandaG on October 1, 2011 at 1:31pm: Congrats Joan46.

Flbradybunch, I am so sorry you have not received your form letter. I know how frustrated you must feel. I pray you receive it soon! If anything, maybe you can contact the recruiter and see what he has to say about it. I did get the address for my SR from the recruiter before I got the form letter. It just so happens that the address was correct. Stay strong.

Comment by WandaG on September 30, 2011 at 11:11pm: Congrats on receiving your box today "joan46" :o)

Comment by flbradybunch (Corpsman Mom) on September 30, 2011 at 3:11pm: LOL Betsy - I was over on chat and said if he doesn't bring me my form letter soon I am going to make my 4 year old with ADHD/ODD ride along with him and tell him he can bring her back when he brings my letter..... he'll drive up to GL to get it if he has to! ROFL

Comment by Betsy, mom of Stennis sailor on September 30, 2011 at 3:08pm: flbradybunch, I have often wondered if the US Postal Service offers their mail carriers combat training to prepare them for Navy moms, lol.

Comment by flbradybunch (Corpsman Mom) on September 30, 2011 at 1:26pm: I think I am going to lose my everloving mind....... is the form letter EVER going to come???????? Mail is here, letter isn't. If it doesn't come soon I feel sorry for my poor postal worker!

Comment by Betsy, mom of Stennis sailor on September 30, 2011 at 12:27pm: Welcome, georgiathrashers!

Comment by NukeMom on September 30, 2011 at 10:27am: Hello everyone!
