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."

Well it's only 2pm there and this is about the time that calls usually start coming in. it won't be long now :)
Comment by SANDY ship07div056 on January 24, 2011 at 4:04pm

......maybe they're trying to get the others to pass the swim test first.

.......maybe they know we 're over here worrying ourselves to death and they're toying with us.

......maybe somebody acted crazy and all calls got revoked.

Who knows? I'll just keep waiting.  Looks like I would be good at this by now, dontcha think?

Comment by KLP0824 on January 24, 2011 at 4:02pm

So no weather concerns..... so what's up?
Comment by punkinbaby76 on January 24, 2011 at 3:57pm
I wouldn't think that weather would keep them from doing it...J said it was warm inside the ship. And its all indoors.....I am so sorry! I hope you all get your calls soon!

my best friend just called me on my cell phone!!  Talk about a heart attack and instant let down!  Talk about pins and needles!
Comment by momof5 (ship07,div055) on January 24, 2011 at 3:56pm
I almost wonder if it was too cold there last night/this morning to complete  BS21........
Comment by SANDY ship07div056 on January 24, 2011 at 3:55pm
........no call.  3:06 pm here.  (sigh)
Comment by Penny_Nuke_MM2_NimitzNuke on January 24, 2011 at 3:50pm
It's pretty quiet on here for the past hour... either everybody is already on the phone with the recruits and they aren't letting anybody know or they have their hands stuck on their cell phones (which are in their bras).
Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on January 24, 2011 at 3:27pm
It's okay, I know what you mean. The ribbons will be at the front desk of the hotel by 3pm on thursday.
