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."

I got a chance to chat with my son today. He said he was tired and the first day off would be the 28th.

This is my sons second deployment. We got to spend Saturday with him and his wide at the San Diego county fair. This sure was great during the last deployment. I am looking toward to chatting with everyone here. At least with deployment your not waiting for the box to show up with all the civilian clothes in it.

My son was not much of a comminicator either. N4M & I was friends with one of the wives who helped tremendously, but they're no longer with the ship.
Im counting on all of us, which I know we're a great team here. So thank you so much!!!

We got to have my son this weekend. & our Goodbyes last night was harder than usual. Sadness in our faces was my last image. But now seeing his beautiful smile from the Ombudsman pictures put a Big Smile in my Heart!!!

All will Be Well! Well for all of us here!!!

I am grateful to all of you and will be checking this site frequently.

BR is right. This group will help immensely.  You'll be surprised.  My son was not a communicator so I depended on this group and their sailors to keep up on all the latest.

There are some cool pics of the sailors on the ship before it left on the "USS Cape St. George" page on Facebook.
