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."

Comment by Deb (FC Mom) on February 5, 2011 at 6:41pm: He has a phone! HAPPY, HAPPY MOM =)

Comment by Penny_Nuke_MM2_NimitzNuke on February 5, 2011 at 5:31pm: Chris, my son is rooming with a guy from 058 who is 20 right now and going to be turning 21. Think his last name starts either with an L or a G. Don't know if that is your son or not...

Comment by Deb (FC Mom) on February 5, 2011 at 5:19pm: dad - we all went thru it & we survived, no worries you're just exhausted from your extended visit to the midwest.

Comment by gvnavydad-ship011div057 on February 5, 2011 at 3:41pm: Finally home...saw on my sailors fb page he is off to Chicago...a whole new thing to worry about...liberty.

Comment by Karen Shp 11 Div 053 on February 5, 2011 at 2:26pm: My daughter is leaving base the first time today with her roommate and other friends to go to the mall (pensacola, fl) and she mentioned they may take a cab. I just gave her the advice about requesting the price of the fare. I didn't even think about that. Thank you

Comment by Deb (FC Mom) on February 4, 2011 at 9:20pm: Way to go ACTmom

Comment by ACTmom(ship 11 Div 054) on February 4, 2011 at 7:52pm: I got 2 pics of the notorious tattoo. One would go on the arm, one across the back -shoulder area. He's still uncertain which one he wants. I'm a painter/artist, so believe it or not, I actually offered my own adaptation of one of them. If you can't beat them , join them, right?

Comment by diannep on February 4, 2011 at 5:41pm: SharonMAmom: Here is the website for the division tshirts---if you can still order them:

www.mwrgl.com

Click on ENTER, click on RECRUIT GRAD tab at top, scroll down to "order form". On that are the Poseiden phone numbers you can call and see if you can still order.

Comment by Deb (FC Mom) on February 4, 2011 at 5:34pm: Chris, I know exactly how you are feeling. There was activity on my son's FB page today but since his sister has his laptop at the moment it might have been her. Will feel much better once he gets a cell...he didn't have one before he went in. And I agree that it's the thought that they are really out there now and we have nothing to plan for or distract us. I keep thinking "what did I forget...did I dod enough..."
