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!

Susan
Did you mean to let our rescue angels know to send it private message, too, so we don't give out too much sailor information, such as last names, etc. ??

We are close to St Louis Lambert airport. It has a big USO organization. However, we still are happy to help anyway we can with our sailor family. It takes us about 50 minutes to get to the airport, as we are in Illinois.
Love you all and have had all in our prayers.

continued prayers of safety for our sailors and praises to all who can and have helped!

this has been a stressful, cliff-hanging weekend! I will ALMOST be glad to go back to work tomorrow and be distracted! I feel helpless here in NC! My heart aches for the SAILORS and families. I sent my info to Bernadette, who else should I send it to for future reference, in case these situations arise again? Do we have a list of airports in the US that have USO'S and what their operating hours are? I look forward to checking in and reading that ALL are home and safe! Merry Chirstmas to all!
