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."

Comment by jcmom on November 27, 2018 at 9:38pm: HI everyone. We have a GA Facebook Moms group. Having an event on December 8th. https://www.facebook.com/events/572125659906240/

Comment by jcmom on October 23, 2018 at 6:50pm: MarleyJean, I live not too far from you. When did your daughter leave? I live near Duluth. When is your daughter graduating?

Comment by MarleyJean on September 17, 2018 at 7:56am: I live in Loganville in Gwinnett County. My daughter is in boot camp.

Comment by Holly MA Mom on May 24, 2017 at 4:05pm: Hi Everyone!! Welcome! Sorry - I haven't been on in a month or so. It's like Suwigg said, we're much more active on the Georgia Navy Moms FB page just because most of us see notifications more immediately on that group and have gotten to know each other. BUT.. Navy for Moms is definitely the best place to be for those of you who have new SR's or just went through boot camp.

My son has been in the Navy for about 4 years and he's currently stationed in California after his last deployment. I'm in Dunwoody. We are about due to have another meet and greet soon, though I think there was just one recently on the southside. If you have any questions or need anything, we're all one big family and most of us remember all too well those new Navy Mom days (and nights) and are happy to help with anything and everything we can. Feel free to friend me on this page and/or message me with any questions.

Happyone00, there are definitely lots of experiences to share (mostly good - many humerous ones). We can definitely give you a list of things to do to prepare yourself and your SR so that when the time comes you don't feel so alone and anxious.

Comment by Samray5 on May 24, 2017 at 3:31pm: Hi Columbus mom here. Son is leaving June 12

Comment by Happyone00 on April 29, 2017 at 6:33pm: Hello, I've been watching Georgia Navy Moms for a few months. We are in McDonough. My son leaves for boot camp on July 26th. I am trying to learn all I can as we are new to the military life. I'd love to hear some other Mom experiences. I am so proud of my son's decision.

Comment by Georgia Girl on April 28, 2017 at 10:24pm: Welcome MamaDawg in Athens! Rome, GA here. Mine graduated 6/10/15. Boy has the time flown. He is on his first deployment right now in the western Pacific. So far from home. He's been gone a month and I can't wait to hear from him. Where will your son go to A-school?

Comment by IslandGal on April 28, 2017 at 8:00pm: St. Simons here, and true, this group is t real active, but we do lurke. Ask any questions and we will try to assist.

Comment by Suwigg (Mom - LS2/Italy) on April 28, 2017 at 6:58pm: Hi MamaDawg - If you are on Facebook, we have a much more active group there. Georgia Navy Moms, and there are larger Navy Mom groups on Facebook as well. Join us! Hang in there - Boot Camp is hard on the mom!
Johns Creek here. My son is leaving San Diego and his destroyer after 4 1/2 years. He's heading to Naples Italy for his next duty station.
