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."

So I got the dreaded call from my husband. He is getting medically separated. He was so upset about it and he was in tears I told him it would be okay and that I love home but if you could please pray for him I would greatly appreciate it. God has other plans for him I'm sure and I don't want him to feel like he failed or disappointed me or his family. Thanks in advance

Prayers for your husband!
In sorry to hear that. Yoir attitude and how you handled the news is amazing and just what he needs. Its just not in the cards right now... will he be able to reenlist if he wanted?

****hugs***
I am not sure it was a quick phone call just to tell me he's getting separated and why hopefully he'll call again soon so I can get a little more information

Prayers being sent your way for both of you; you were correct that God has other plans.

Nukespuse30 I am very sorry I hope he will be fine.  My thoughts & prayers are with you.

Praying for you and your husband!
I will certainly pray for your husband and family. God does have a plan and purpose for his life. Keep trusting Him and His way. He knows what he's doing.

I will pray for you and your husband.  

Hugs to you

Thank you all for your support and prayers
This happened with my son in the marine basic. Its hard believe me but with love all wi b good
I know it will be OK but I'm pretty sure how he's feeling and I won't get to talk to him for a while to let him know it's okay so I'm asking for prayers to help him through this tough time and his disappointment
My son is getting medically discharged also. Tore up his knee pretty bad. I have been able to talk to him and he says he is going back in after he comes home and sees a doctor. I was very discouraged but God is in control. Prayers to you and your family
