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!

We have dispatched a mom to San Diego! Love that fact that I sent out phone calls and had a call back in less than ten minutes! Thanks all! Not only that but we have a sailor that is in San Diego and he made contact within five minutes of getting the phone call for help! We will keep you posted on this sailors status!

Tell him to head to the USO... check their hours though... the one here in Seattle is open 24/7... they offer beds, sandwiches and snacks, xbox, movies and friendly volunteers that staff the desk!

Where is CHS airport? or GC? sorry, just not familiar...
Chon's mom, there is a group for Camp Lajuene moms, they might have some sailors or marines needing a holiday meal, or transportation help.
I'm in Austin Texas, right off of 1-35, any one needing help or a meal, feel free! My son is in San Antonio, as is another Navy mom, so we can grab someone from there as well.

AblueOK,
We live outside of Greenville, TX. If they are going thru our area or close by we would be willing to feed them, let them shower and pull up a spot to sleep. Let me know anything we can do.
