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 Jersey Susan, The link you posted says the content is currently not available.  I would love to see these pictures, also!

Thank you, JerseySusan! I would love to see the photos if you can manage it.

Hi Rachel, Welcome to our group. I have pics that I can't seem to get transferred b/c I'm not home using my home computer. My DIL posted some on her FaceBook. I don't know if its this IPad I'm using, but for some reason, I thought there was a place at the top of this comment block to pull up images, and I don't see it anymore. If I figure it out, I'll get some posted.

Hi there - does anyone have any video or pictures of the crew from the USS San Francisco that participated in the flag ceremony before yesterday's Chargers/Niners football game?

Comment by JerseySusan on August 1, 2013 at 10:57pm

What an honor it was to hear Christopher made "Chief" today!!!

Comment by JerseySusan on July 18, 2013 at 5:24pm

Wow SanDiegoMom...You are 1 very Lucky Sailor Mom!!!!! Living so close to his base must be an absolute joy. Treasure it while you can for a couple of years!!

Other Mom's...take advantage of SanDiegoMom's destination if you need her for anything!!!! 

Elizabeth..It takes "Experience" as a sailors mom to get use to all the "In's & Out's" when you are visiting. Next time, make sure your son "Plans Ahead" for the visit on base & the sub!!! They usually almost get permission to bring you aboard for a tour.

What a wonderful post.  You are a very giving person.  Thank you so much for caring so much.  I am a bit jealous that you saw the sub.  My son said he would try to get us on base our last day there but since he was working on the sub it would be hard.  Ended up that it did not happen.  Wish I had met you when we were there for their arrival.  Enjoy the rest of your summer.  My son will be home soon for a short stay.
