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."

Very interesting and informative report on "This Week with George Stephanopoulos" featuring the USS George HW Bush.  Martha was showing sailors packing bombs and getting ready for air strikes against ISISL. Made me so proud of all of sons and daughters and their service to our country and freedom.

My son just left for boot camp only 2 weeks ago on Sept 11. My family and I are very proud of him, but we miss him so much. His DIV is 359 so I hope there's someone that has a son in the same area so we can correspond. I have so many questions.

Hey moms, my sr is on ship 12 div 322. Are there any Georgia moms in this group? Would love to get to know everyone. I'm certain our daughters have met and are encouraging each other to stay focused.

I leave in Southern  California. My son is leaving to Boot-camp July 29th. I  like to share about my son as a future sailor and read about other sailors experiences. Also would like  to find a support group of  Navy Mom in Southern CA.
