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 afternoon! Is this group still active? I haven't had any luck getting approved for the facebook group and was hoping to find some others moms around. The Oak HIll is my daughter's first duty station and she has been there for a couple months now.

LarLar and any moms,
We have one sailor who comes over to our house and has been coming over since the fall of 2011. We would be happy to invite your sailor(s) over to join us on the weekends. Saturday night we eat and play board games and Sunday we sit down to a home cooked meal including home made read and dessert. Some of the sailors even join in on the cooking. :) We even provide rides for those who don't have transportation.
Yvonne and John
