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."

Congrats to you all!!!!! Whoo Hooo...#1!!!

My son said he has been sick the last week or 2 also.  It must have gotten most of them.  He said he thought this week would be a little less stressful so maybe they will all start feeling better.

Lets hope they all wake up tomorrow feeling great and kick some butt in the Captains Cup...I am sure that would make their day !!!!

I hope they do well.  I know they are looking forward to it.  Is it all held on Sat or do they start tomorrow?

OMGosh...I thought tomorrow was Saturday....This really has been a long week...Sorry...One more day of rest for them then they can kick some butt at Captains Cup...

Funny.  I spent all day thinking tomorrow was Sat until my daughter set me straight tonight.

So glad they get one more day, I know they will want to WIN!  Friendly competitive games? Ha! We'll see!

Congratulations to all of our new sailors! I am so proud of them all and hoping that all get well for the Captains Cup and PIR!! I got my call yesterday afternoon and it was so good to hear my son's voice! I can wait to get their and meet other families and see all those new Sailors!
