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."

Amelia, I am not part of the USS Tennesse group page, but if you go to the link I gave you - USS Tennessee SSBN 734 - Navy For Moms (ning.com) and click on that then you should see a yellow banner at the upper top that says, Click here to request access. That will send a message to the group creator who will then approve you for the group. I am sorry if my original message confused you. 

If your son is an ETN2 - you might also want to join the Nuke Moms group. NUKE moms - Navy For Moms (ning.com)

Good Morning Amelia - I just happened to see your discussion post USS Tennessee - I don't know if this group is a possible good fit for you or not, but I thought I would share it with you. - USS Tennessee SSBN 734 - Navy For Moms (ning.com) 

How long has your sailor been in the service? And what is his rate? If you feel comfortable sharing with me. My comments are moderated, so I don't have to make them visible if I feel like they are private. 

B'sNukeMom - is one of the admins on this site. I am a moderator on a couple of the groups on this site, as well as I do a lot with the BC Mom group on this site. I wanted to say hello and see if there was anything I could help you with. There are also some private groups on this site that I can share with you if you are interested in learning more about them.

Welcome to NAVYforMoms.com!   

Head to “Settings” on the main page right away to add a profile image (no last names visible, please) and complete your Profile. Then - and this is important! - read these Community Guidelines and this Operations Security (OPSEC) Checklist, for the safety and privacy of all our Sailors.

Then jump right in!  Browse around the site and check out the groups and the information in their Discussion Forums.

Join this group for boot camp moms, where you'll also find a group for your Pass in Review (graduation) date; and this one for PIR Reference Information.  

Get a head start during boot camp by joining groups for, and learning about, your Sailor's occupational specialty and "A" School; and later your Sailor's duty station and/or Navy ship and homeport. You can also join groups for your own state, region or home town and interests from getting ready for deployment to care package ideas!

Please say Hi when you join a group, and feel free to ask any and all questions - everyone was new once, and there is no "dumb" question.  This site was created by the U.S. Navy just for you, and we look forward to getting to know you and your Sailor.  Welcome to the NAVY family - we're so glad you're here!!
