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."

for
N4M's Community Guidelines
and
OPSEC.

~OPSEC OPerational SECurity, is always of the utmost importance.

~N4M’s also has Community Guidelines just like any other social media.

~Please take the time to read the OPSEC and N4M’s Community Guidelines.

~A quick note here, from the N4M’s CG’s:

• Don’t Jeopardize the Safety of Our Sailors: Remember OPSEC (Operational Security) (Don’t Sink Ships With Loose Lips) This site and all content posted on it are viewable to everyone on the Internet. This doesn’t mean you can’t share things about your Sailor – but too many details can put Sailors in harm’s way. The following are examples of red flags and should not be shared within this community either by posting or sending via a Group message:

• Sailors’ last names. This includes your username if you share the same last name as your son or daughter.

Some Suggestions:

~If your last name is different from your Recruits it is still not recommended for you to use in your username for your own personal security. This is your option. It is also not a good idea to use an email address as your username for personal security reasons.

~First Names and pictures of your Recruit are allowed but remember, everyone can see it and someone can easily match them up with their "mom". So you might want to consider changing your profile picture to not include your Recruit at least for the duration of BC. Again, your option

~It is also a good idea to make your settings for your Profile Page "viewable only to your friends"

Hello Everyone,

I was wondering if any of you have children who are both Navy and Marines or some combination of family in Navy and Marines.  My friend has a cross body purse she would like to sell for $22.00.  Please private message me if anyone is interested.  Thanks!

Comment by Sierrascrapper (ETN2) on July 31, 2014 at 3:54pm

Ok...no mail yesterday :(  So I'm hoping for something today.  I did have a very nice mail day yesterday though as a wonderful Navy Mom friend of mine sent me a special Sun Catcher of the Navy seal.  It is so beautiful and warms my heart.  Have I ever mentioned how much I LOVE my Navy Mom Sisters????  Well I do.  I LOVE all of you for who you are and for raising such amazing children that want to serve our country and protect our freedoms. 

Hope we all have a GOOD SR MAIL DAY!
