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."

Quick question- if my son (who is a Nuke and will be in training for the next 2 years) buys a car in SC (where he will be for at least a year) can he register it in TX? Does he have to come to TX to do so?

Sunday’s work for me thanks. Let me know when.

My son left from Sugar Land for boot camp on Feb 8th.   I hope that he is not freezing....He was looking forward to seeing snow

TravelMomma!  I used to live in Harlingen when I was a tiny toddler!  My brother was born there.

Comment by Ruth, Gun's Mom on February 8, 2018 at 11:14pm

TravelMomma, my son is also a GM. He left for Great Lakes fourteen years ago this month.  When are good days to get together for you and you, Midnight12? A Sunday afternoon?

Comment by TravelMomma! on February 8, 2018 at 10:49pm
Hello midnight12! I'm in Harlingen, have 1 in since December 2016 and another going in this summer I'd love to get together with you and/or any other moms in the Valley!

Midnight12, I’m next door in Donna!  I’m a Winter Texan at Palm Shadows on Val Verde, but have met several Navy moms in Harlingen and Alamo. We plan to get together soon, so you’ll be included!
