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 Navy moms,

Thought I'd drop by to say hi to you all and find out if you'll be seeing your son/daughter son.  My son Andrew will be coming home for a visit July 8th till the 21st.  It'll be the first time home for Andrew since last June.

Hope you and your family are all doing well.  Drop me a line when you get a free minute.

To all CT Moms:  The packing party scheduled for Saturday at Harrington Hospital has been cancelled.  There will be a smaller one in MA - either in Brockton or Plainville.  If you'd like to come send me a Friend Request or PM me & I'll send you where, phone # and when.  Time may be set for earlier in the day - 10-10:30'ish.

HI Donna,

Sorry, but I won't be able to make it. 

Comment by Proud Navy/NYPD Mom (Donna) on April 16, 2013 at 10:23am

Just wondering, is anyone coming to the packing party from CT??

I want to make sure we have everything we'll need, so if you will be there please leave a comment.  I didn't start a discussion, because the 20th is this Saturday!!!

Comment by Proud Navy/NYPD Mom (Donna) on April 14, 2013 at 8:25pm

Well, the next S. New England packing party is going to be on Saturday, April 20th.  It was the best day but only by one mom.  Please do try to make it!!  I will put the details in a discussion above in the next day or two.

So mark your calendars - 4/20 beginning at 11:30am at Harrington Hospital in Southboro, right off Rte. 84 in CT.
