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."

carrituggle,
I am so glad you have found other moms here who have sailors in the same ship/div as your daughter's. It's so nice to hook up with moms whose kids are going through the same things at the same time. However, you must be careful not to disclose any last names on this site. It is open to anyone who might be interested in gaining information about our troops. It is one of our OPSEC rules so just be aware of any personal info you post here. We all just want to keep our sailors safe!!! GO NAVY!!!!!

Hi there, my daughter's name is Taylor Palmer. I am going to write her and tell her that Kayse 's mom and I are emailing if that is ok. I think they would get a kick out of it. Especially if they have become friends. I made reservations at the ramada scheduled to arrive thursday. I plan on attending the meet and greet. We will bill driving in from ashtabula , ohio. Thank you so much for writing back. I think this is really neat. It helps me. I miss my daughter so much.

Hope your daughter is doing well at BC. I see you have joined your PIR group. Make copies of the letter with the PASSWORD for getting you parking pass. So many people loose that and go into a panic.
I see you have adjusted to being a part of the Navy family. I want to send you a belated thank you for the friend request. I have not resolve some minor difficulty with my N4M "addressbook" When I select multiple recipients, the friends who receive my message are not always the names I had selected. Typically, private messages are use for communicating issues that are more personal in nature, so for now I am adding friends only when someone is in need. You find me on a daily basis in the Safe Harbor & New Moms Stop Here group . Please join if you haven’t and we can talk there. BunkerBee
