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 August 26, 2009 at 2:35pm: There really aren't many folks signed up in each state... The important part is that the site is checked at least a couple of times a day in case a rescue is needed... I check in at least three times each day and have a couple of moms that also check in and call me if we need to spring to action.

Comment by Joanie Tyler's Mom(133 Bees) on August 26, 2009 at 12:20pm: Go to your friends page that you want to send a PM to. Hit Send A Message, Type Message and send.

Comment by Joanie Tyler's Mom(133 Bees) on August 25, 2009 at 12:15pm: I live in Summit, MS. I'm about 1 1/2 hours north of New Orleans, LA and 1 hour south of Jackson, MS. I'm also about 6 hours from Pensacola, FL. Will do whatever I can.

Comment by Susan mom to Niko on August 24, 2009 at 12:15pm: To send a private message... first you have to send a request to be my friend. Once I 'ok' that then you can go to my page and under my picture (on the left column) you 'send a message'.
