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."

Welcome ProudMom

Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.

Psalm 27:14

Lord, I know that all things work together for good for those who love you. Give me the patience to wait on you and the peace to know your timing is always best.

A happy heart makes the face cheerful . . .

Proverbs 15:13

God, I sometimes lose sight of what truly makes me happy and satisfied—my relationship with you. Thank you for the peace, joy, and hope you provide today.

Comment by outi on October 4, 2017 at 12:59pm: In agreement in Jesus name, Blondie! - Now to Him Who able to do exceedingly abundantly beyond all we ask or imagine, according to the power that works in us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21

Comment by Jesusintheboat on October 4, 2017 at 12:15pm: Amen in agreement

Comment by Blondie on October 4, 2017 at 10:34am: Thanks Jesusintheboat :)

Daughter was cleared to travel, Tahlia goes to doctor on Tue. hoping they release her also. Lots of medical problems in last 6 months. I just need to SS and HUG them! We've made 2 trips out but this will be her first home, can't wait!

Comment by Blondie on October 4, 2017 at 10:30am: Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

1 Peter 4:8

“Lord, when I’m tempted to judge others for what they do and condemn them in my heart, help me rather to show them the mercy and love that you show to me.”

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.

Deuteronomy 6:5

"Father, I love you and want to devote my heart, soul, and strength to showing my love for you. Reveal any areas that I need to relinquish in order to love you more fully.”

Comment by Jesusintheboat on October 4, 2017 at 10:25am: So glad to hear Blondie that is great!
