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 terbeasch on September 2, 2009 at 4:36pm: I'm interested in getting this "off the ground too, please let me know what I can do to help. Teresa

Comment by Susan mom to Niko on August 31, 2009 at 2:52pm: Is the car in New Jersey??? Call an auto dealer there... explain the situation and they may be able to help you! Or call the command ombudsman... maybe the Navy can assist you! Are you sure your son did not leave you a power of attorney when he shipped out??

Comment by momof2sailors on August 31, 2009 at 2:48pm: Has your son received the new plates yet. If he did can he send them to you?

Comment by Susan mom to Niko on August 31, 2009 at 11:50am: Hello,
Contact your local dmv... they can issue a temporary drive away permit. Explain you need to transport the car to another state for licsensing... usually the permit is good for 15 days! I used to work for a car dealership and they get them all the time for used car purchases!

Comment by momof2sailors on August 28, 2009 at 8:04am: Dawn,
I just sent a add a friend to you. Can you pm me when you get a chance?

Comment by Susan mom to Niko on August 27, 2009 at 10:32pm: I have given my phone number and offered a room in Seattle if needed... sounds like they were able to get a ticket and will be flying out instead. If something changes they have my cell number!

Comment by Susan mom to Niko on August 27, 2009 at 3:56pm: hey Vicki... ok me as a friend so I can get some details from you! Might have a lead on a driver!
