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."

Thanks to the many moms and more that are here and ready to help when a sailor is in need! It is amazing to know that no matter where our sailors travel in the United States there is a mom there ready to rescue them with a hot meal, place to stay, or help to get back on the road!

To be added to the list send me (Susan mom to Niko) a friend request. Then you can send me a private message with your name, location and phone number. Then you are added to the list!

Comment by Susan mom to Niko on December 24, 2011 at 3:50pm: Thank you to all the wonderful moms who have volunteered their homes and help over the past year! It is such a comfort to all Navy moms and their sailors knowing that help is only a post on Navy 4 moms and phone call away!!

Comment by Rhonda8881 on December 24, 2011 at 12:12pm: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Thank you to all for sharing your sons and daughters with us through the US Navy! God Bless.

Comment by bobbysproudmom on December 8, 2011 at 7:47pm: Barb--You could also try the Nuke Moms group. Some Sailors are getting ready to leave Charleston, SC headed Ballston Spa, NY for prototype.

Comment by UFQ202- Ship 12, Div 231 on November 9, 2011 at 1:44am: Not just sailor's but how about going to the VA hospital in the area. Maybe drop off some old magazines, books, candy, cookies. You get the idea.....

Comment by Suzi-OH on November 9, 2011 at 12:23am: Not many here in the Cleveland, OH area either....guessing mostly recruiters who have families. But, if you hear of any Military in need in my area, let me know.....

Comment by GodBlessAmerica on November 9, 2011 at 12:15am: I am in rhe Milwaukee area. I am too far to "Adopt A Sailor" through Great Lakes. However, if there are any sailors in the area that need a meal, my family would be happy to have them.

Comment by KathyMmom on November 8, 2011 at 7:11pm: Good idea SusanN - I'm going to call over and talk to folks at Buckley (I know some Sailors are there), and at Fort Carson as well.
