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 CSW on July 25, 2018 at 4:06pm

I always thought it should be the mother's who celebrate the kids birthdays since they did all the work! LOL.

Enjoy the day and give your sailor extra hugs from the other Nuke moms!

SubMom, I also want to say Happy Birthday to your sailor! The years fly by, don't they? So many changes, too. Best wishes!

Comment by SubMom on July 25, 2018 at 2:27pm

B'sNukeMoM - thank you for the birthday wishes for my son.

Comment by KayCee on July 25, 2018 at 2:25pm

Hi Sea Sisters and Happy Birthday to your son, SubMom!!

Nukelukesmom - I agree, it's been a crazy ride this first year with so much more to come.  Tomorrow marks one year for my sailor!  And as B'sNuke says - some days it feels like time flies and other times not so much.  I still have sorrowful days where I miss him like crazy and other days - so much pride.

This site is amazing and I thank all of you for your insight, encouragement, support and knowledge.  Without you all, I would be so lost and in the dark. 

Enjoy the rest of your week!
