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."

Good Morning Farragut Mom!  Today we are one day closer to the day they all return.

I would definitely be interested in learning more about it annrea1024

Did anyone else see the link for ordering the RED Friday shirts that name the Farragut? My DIL sent it to me and I've ordered our family some. I guess it's a fundraiser put on by the FRG. I have the link and will share it, if anyone wants it. I just don't remember the rules, at the moment, about links in here. I'm checking the rules now.

This is my sons firsr deployment.  He just married his new beautiful "sailorette" March 31st.  I am very thankful for this group.

Got it.  Thank you.

Comment by UnitedNavy on April 12, 2018 at 11:33am

Also...just as a heads up...what i usually do is I follow the group for the ship, the destroyer Moms also as well and the Truman Carrier strike group.  Give us a bigger base of support and we are all there together. 

Comment by ANSmom on April 12, 2018 at 11:24am

Thank you for the advice.  I am trying.  I'm so thankful for the seasoned sailors.  I know he is in extremely capable hands.  And he is a very smart, mature young man as well.
