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."

Hi Everybody: I know that this may be early - but our computer is a little cranky - we would appreciate prayers for our Brianna. She is 14 months old, and will have her cleft pallet surgery next Tuesday - the 10th. Thanks - my angel blessings ~~S {her Oma}

Hi Everybody: Just found you. While I found this site about a month a go, I haven't navigated much in it - or figured out what I'm doing. Anway, my son is on the Pennsylvania.

Hi all, Robert called last night and he is enjoying BESS very much. Yesterday they toured the escape mock-up, I can't remember whaat he called it but he said that they would not get to try it out as it is being remodeled. He also informed me he talked to some deep sea divers and may want to try that out after a few years in subs. More gray hair for me but he has always be a dare devil. He said his class is #09420 I think that right. any way I keep asking him if he has met anyone from Mich and he is still looking. also told him I talk to the mom's on this site and the Groton site so I have eyes all over. He just laughed and said some of the other guys say the same their moms.
