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 SANDY ship07div056 on June 12, 2011 at 7:28am: ActMom - Great news! So happy to hear this!

Comment by ACTmom(ship 11 Div 054) on June 11, 2011 at 7:09pm: Cindy~ I never got to ask you what your daughters last name was and where she is at?

Comment by ACTmom(ship 11 Div 054) on June 11, 2011 at 7:06pm: Hey everyone. I'm checking in with some GOOD news! Well, they determined that everything is fine with my sons heart. They do feel that he is suffering from some depression and anxiety, so they will have him talking with a psychiatrist once on his ship, and working with him on how to deal with all of it, which is GOOD! They have cleared him for duty, and yes, he now is officially ON BOARD the USS George Washington, waiting for his first deployment! Can we just shout out a big HOOYAH right now?!!!!! I can't tell you all how relieved I am!! I am so thankful for all of you and all of your prayers. I know that we've got a Great Big God, and He answers prayer. I just felt a peace inside of me, even though I still wanted to worry. So, now we are moving forward again, and praying that it will be smooth sailing for all of us and our sailors going forward. Thank you all again so much. No one understands like all of you what we truly go through with our sailors. Be blessed, every one of you!

Comment by ACTmom(ship 11 Div 054) on June 7, 2011 at 11:47am: Well, my son had his cardiologist appointment. They have an event monitor strapped on him for 24 hours. He will get it off today, and then will get the results on Thursday to see what all will come of it. Thanks for all of your continued prayers!

Comment by Cindy Ship11,DIV54 on June 5, 2011 at 4:37pm: ACTmom, I'm praying for your Sailor! My daughter is on leave and knows him. She was reading your update because they hadn't heard what was going to happen. She already knew about the heart condition and is keeping him in her prayers too.
