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."

Prayer verse to share as I feel it is appropriate for this evening for our young men who will begin very shortly!

 

Isaiah 41:10  10

 So do not fear, for I am with you;
   do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
   I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Go Division 170!!!!

AMEN!  Perfect way to start them off!

From the other BATTLESTATIONS discussion group, it looks like 172 went through Battlestations last night as well (Monday, May 9 - Tuesday a.m.)

Amen to Isaiah 41:10  Our prayers for all Battle Stations Tonight.

 

Got a letter from my SR today.  Made it through the " Confidence Chamber"  Wouldn't want to repeat that Test.

She mentioned we might need birth cirtificates to get into PIR because of the high level security right now.  Has

anyone else heard about this?  Just wondered.  We are leaving Wed. AM so no time to get them now.

Will just have to wing it.

tossed and turned all night  i think its going to be a very long day my thoughts and prayers are with our sr. hopefully by the time work ends we start getting calls .. have a great day everyone
I havent been to sleep yet, thank goodness I was off tonight.  Of course I have meetings in the am but I keep thinking about what the boys/girls are doing right now.  All the normal mother things.  I guess it goes to show no matter how old they are, they are still your little boy/girl....=)

Good Morning all I am about to leave for work, I hope they don't expect much from me.  I was very restless all night and just running on nervous energy this morning.  Newnavymom 172 did do battlestations overnight. 

A few more hours......God give them strength to see this through!

I have a SAILOR......WOOHOO
