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."

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW SAILOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When i was talking to my son today, I was asking the questions like "did everyone pass", "who's on watch", and I told him it was so I could let my N4M and facebook group know. He said to me "Yeah, word's gotten around here about you and your facebook group."   
What does that mean??

Hello,

My daughter was on Ship 12 Div 296. This website is so Awesome, she's in Fort Lee, VA A School CS. Sending you a friend request. Where is your sailor now?  My husband and I went to the Graduation, wish I join before I went. Very supportive site.

Hi NarMom.  My daughter is in A school in Great Lakes. Yes, this site is awesome!  Welcome.

Thanks for accepting my friend request.

Yes I've met and learn so much and love all the support.

Your daughter would know my son LSSN Mat then. He was the Honorary Petty Officer and Yeomen for DIV 295/296. Mat is in Meridian MS for A school for Logistics Specialist. He will be stationed in San Diego, Ca to a Destroyer.  He is done with A school but they are keeping him in hold until the end of NOV.

Oh ok, I'm going to ask my daughter does she know your son. Nice I know you're proud of him. we all are proud of all our sailor.

Thanks.
