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!

Joni... let us know when he is headed this way. I look for chances to visit my son... Maybe I could combine a visit with a trip from the airport! Cab fare is so expensive!

I believe I am caught up with adding those that have emailed me their info... If I missed you please accept my deepest apologies! Send along your name, location and phone numbers and I am happy to add you to the rescue list! Thanks so much for volunteering!

Hi. I just joined this group and like Pam, I am not that close to a Navy base but if a sailor is traveling through Springfield, Missouri they can look to me for help.

I'm here in Ypsilanti, MI, not too far from Detroit Metro. My husband actually works at the airport.
