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 NancyJo (NNPTC) on February 14, 2014 at 5:07pm: Yea for Misty and Aaron! All I can say is N4Ms rocks! I wonder how many votes they got? It looked like there was some tough competition. Meanwhile, looking at Abby I almost feel like she's one of my granddaughters. How she is growing! So beautiful.

Comment by Marcy ~ Corpsman Mom on February 14, 2014 at 4:26pm: Misty and Aaron send you all their thanks for all the NAVY love and votes - they won their Valentine's Date Night Out! They will have a night at the movies as soon as he returns from a training mission overseas. Meanwhile, here's our Navy baby Abby helping out her big sisters :)

Comment by 2catsn2sailors on February 12, 2014 at 11:18pm: Staci,

Any word on Mr. Chedester and getting him to the Navy veterans nursing home?

Comment by Paymaster on February 4, 2014 at 9:52am: Yes, Marcy please keep us posted on our Abby. Prayers for her.

Comment by Marcy ~ Corpsman Mom on February 3, 2014 at 9:57pm: I will, absolutely! Thanks Ann :)

Comment by Whit and Stephen's Mom (Ann) on February 2, 2014 at 10:31am: Marcy - If there is anything we can do to help the Young family, please let us know!

Comment by Marcy ~ Corpsman Mom on February 1, 2014 at 2:22am: More information about "our" little girl Abby…they are not sure what is going on and she is undergoing extensive tests (MRI, blood tests, etc) along with physical therapy. She has increasing balance and coordination issues, needs a corrective chair for sitting, and also has developed asthma. I know you all will keep her in your thoughts and prayers! They are exhausted with worry.

Comment by 2catsn2sailors on January 31, 2014 at 10:48pm: Thanks for info Staci. I will send him a card. I decided that either way it's a win. If he is still there, he gets another card. If he's not there that nursing home will see how many people care about our veterans. Thanks Staci, for helping him and following up on it. You make us Navy Moms even prouder!

I wish we could start a petition. maybe contact the VA...something!

Comment by Marcy ~ Corpsman Mom on January 31, 2014 at 10:35pm: Our "Navy baby" Abby's mom and dad are asking for our help to win a Valentine's Day "cutest couple" contest and gift certificate for their local theater! Just go to this Facebook link and "like" their photo. Please read their description at that link for an update on our precious Abby and send a prayer along too. Thanks everyone, this would be a big boost for the family right now! Here is the link: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152777198354119&set=a...
