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."

Katina I'm glad you finally heard from your son.. Looks like they have all been very busy..
Comment by Kaina on November 18, 2014 at 2:36pm
Yes!! Finally heard from my son this morning.
Said he too has been busy. Too busy to check emails & when he can there's a long line.
He said its been windy & cold. But thats just temporary.

Im just send a regualr care package and a christmas card and because we both had birthdays while they were gone im going to do a thanksgiving christmas and birthday party with our families. Ive already got his birthday gift working on christmas. But that way i dont have to worry about it making it or getting lost or stolen or space. I think i may also may print out pictures of the family and send them but he know were doing a party deal when he gets home so he doesnt expect gifts.

I could use some help in getting my sailor a Christmas gift. I'm thinking they don't have a lot of storage space for non-consummable gifts,

Saturday night I couldn't bear it any longer so I Facebook messaged my son, he did respond Sunday morning saying he had been busy studying for qualifications and sleeping.  But said all is well.

Comment by Kaina on November 17, 2014 at 6:12pm
Thank you all for its been the longest ever so I got worried. They all must be very busy getting stuff done so they can get home. I also read a few exercises going on & I know that keeos them very busy.
I heard $10 phone cards will be given out for the Holidays to deployed Sailors. Sure would love to hear his voice.
