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."

I'm a Gold Crew mom.

Hi!

My name is Barbara and I have two sons in the Navy. My oldest joined in 2006. He was on the Louisiana, but is now on the USS Michigan. He is with the Blue Crew. My youngest joined in 2008, he is a corpsmen. He is stationed in Groton, CT now. But he will be going back to NC soon.

Just wanted to connect with other families of submariners and corpsmen.

Here, here to a little Christmas cheer! Wishing the Gold and Blue Crew and their families a happy and safe holiday season and always Fair winds and following seas.

Good morning Ladies. Just found out Blue Crew. Is there a group on M4ms or FB? Thank you.
Comment by Johanna on August 23, 2013 at 7:16am
Hi Barb... Thank you so much for the nice welcome! I am so happy for my son, and we are all looking forward to discovering that part of the country. He doesn't know which crew he is yet. You have all been so helpful and I have created a folder w all your wisdom so I can refer to it as all of this moves along!

Are there any Eat Coast Moms here, or anyone on the USS Michigan?
Comment by NukeMom/MM/USSMichigan on January 5, 2013 at 2:39pm

Gold crew.  I'm not Penny, sorry.

Comment by NukeMom/MM/USSMichigan on January 5, 2013 at 11:48am

Hello everyone and I hope you all had a great holiday season.  I will be traveling to NY in a couple of weeks to help my sailor get across the country.  He wants to drive, but in the middle of winter??  What do your sailors do about housing?  If they're out on deployment, do they pay rent on an apt that's empty?  Is there base housing?  (My son in single.)
