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."

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"

What division is your SR in JBStyle?
Comment by JBStyle on July 30, 2015 at 1:58pm

I just got a phone call from my SR! It sure was awesome to hear his voice! I asked him if he liked the food and he said he was okay! :)

Lu: I'm sorry to hear about your son. I pray the miraculous healing of God upon him, which will render him victorious over his injury. May all of you be forever strengthened by this experience.
Comment by diannep on July 30, 2015 at 9:24am

...I should add, mimifabs, that it is usually easier to contact them by email.  It is rare that they get to all of the phone calls. Hoping the link below works.

Good Morning!

Comment by Brandi on July 30, 2015 at 9:18am

ok, have to vent. Obviously, my phone is attached to me. Yesterday afternoon, I got  a call from an 800# that said "United States". My heart stopped as I answered, at first there was nothing, then music, then a foreign voice wanting to "lower my visa interest rate". Needless to say, I invented a few words that I won't repeat here. Talk about wanting to reach out and touch someone! Telemarketers be forewarned, I bought a whistle and I'm ready! Do these  people understand that hell hath no fury like a new Navy Mom who has't heard from her baby in weeks?!?

mimifabs:  See if you can contact them through this Link, clicking Contact Form on the page.

Lu:  So very sorry....I too hope that they do re evaluate him and consider keeping him on medical hold to heal....please keep us posted on here, ok?   Prayers for your SR and YOU!

kvonavymom:  I believe that they offer you a discount code for car rental too, don't they?  They used to.  They are a great airlines to fly....they fly into both Chicago-Midway and Milwaukee (Milwaukee is further but much shorter drive to GL due to no traffic).

Comment by kvonavymom(Kellie) on July 29, 2015 at 9:10pm

I found really great prices on Southwest Airlines only $84 each way from NY area and they offer 2 bags free and no change fee other than if the new flight cost more...
