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."

See how fortunate we all are to be able to enjoy nature and all her beauty!! I have a ocean top rural trail that I can take up to Pirates Cove, the dogs love it...and every time I walk it I don't forget to thank God, I tell him"Thank You God for allowing me to Live, Love and laugh here in Shell Beach, CA.". Because he is Good All the Time!!

Comment by Pam on November 20, 2010 at 9:48am: Good morning all! I was going to post J's picture, but since the uniform shows last name I removed it. Hope everyone's Sailor came through the week in good spirits. Big test on Monday that he said he'll be studying for all weekend. The end is near!

Comment by Pam on November 19, 2010 at 9:45pm: GOT THE CALL! Best sound I've heard in, well, it's only been five days, but it seemed like thirty!! Tired, crazy training and he's calling himself a marine. What the heck! It was a quick call since we were at Ruby Tuesdays and he wanted to get cleaned up, but he sent me a picture and I'll have to post it as soon as I get it off my phone!!

Love it Judy. I see cows, horses and yep, the occasional rabbit!! Until I get to Atlanta and then it's all concrete. How beautiful.

Comment by JudyB. on November 19, 2010 at 9:20pm: Chief, You talked to H already? Cool, then we should here from our Corpsman's...I'm so excited!! HooRahhh!!

I just love this view especially when the waves crash up onto the rocks, beautiful white water views. I have a pair of binoculars that sits next to my desktop computer.

Comment by JudyB. on November 19, 2010 at 9:04pm: This is our view from our 2nd story looking northwest. Were looking toward Avila Beach just behind the first mountain range that is a beautiful Family beach with concrete and tile boardwalks and just beyond the water over the palm in the foreground is the oldest "Nude Beach" in California it is Pirates Cove
