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 AlishaNicole SHP11DIV54 on January 25, 2011 at 5:48pm: punkinbaby, that's awesome!!! Stop by and say hi!! :)

Another bit of info: Each Division designed their own flag design and had t-shirts made with them on it! My daughter ordered one for her and several for our family! Just wanted you to know, so ask your sailor next time you talk to them!

Comment by SherryYmom Ship 07 DIV 055 on January 25, 2011 at 5:48pm: Here is the scoop so far....Everyone in 55 passed!!!! He doesn't know about the other Div's. From what I can gather (the connection was horrible and he is very sick!) Div 55 did go on Sunday night, but were unable to call until today. No one was in trouble, just their scheduled time to call...??? He says they do not have their score yet. He is going to San Diego and is really ready for some warmer weather!!! HooYah!!!!! Praise God ladies we finally have our Sailors!!! I am headed home to finish packing!!! See you all soon!!!!

Comment by Penny_Nuke_MM2_NimitzNuke on January 25, 2011 at 5:48pm: I'm guessing that all the divisions are done but standing in line for phones !!!!

Comment by Cindy Ship11,DIV54 on January 25, 2011 at 5:48pm: Congrats to all receiving calls! HOOYAH! We have sailors! See you all at the meet and greet!

Comment by Sharon*MA mom* on January 25, 2011 at 5:47pm: I'm off to a basketball game, cell phone in hand with an extra battery!!!

Comment by ACTmom(ship 11 Div 054) on January 25, 2011 at 5:45pm: Congratulations to all of you new sailor moms and dads!! HOOYAH!

My son said that he wanted to check out the mail in Gurnee for liberty. It will only take about 15-20 min. from the base to get there. Here is a list of restaurants in that area that I wrote down for him to pick from:

Red Lobster,Ruby Tuesday,Joe's Crab Shack,TGI Fridays, Olive Garden,Outback Steakhouse,Cracker Barrel,Applebee's,Giordano's Pizzaria(chicago style pizza), and if you are going to have little kiddo's with you, there is a place called Rainforest Cafe. You can google it. Looks neat for smaller kids to enjoy! Lots of things to do at the mall too! Hope that helps you out!

Comment by punkinbaby76 on January 25, 2011 at 5:42pm: I am so happy you are all getting calls! Congrats to you all!!

Alisha- thanks girl! We will be there friday night! Eating our steak!
