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."

Richard turned 21 on Monday! He sounded a little down. I guess he didn't get to do anything exciting. He had to work the breakfast shift. This coming Monday, he leaves for Hawaii. I'm looking forward to his return trip. He put my name on the list for the "Tiger Cruise" I've always wanted to go on a cruise, just never thought it would be with the US Navy! lol

Johanna, I connected with Richard's ship on facebook, and it is amazing the updates they give! It is good to get updates when the ship is out to sea!
-
-
I can't wait to hear about his adventure! He leaves for the first big one in June, but will only be gone for about 6-8 weeks.
-

Richard goes out on his first cruise today. He called me to let me know he sets sail in two hours. He will be back on Friday. He said he is just going out for patrol duty.
-
-
Lisa, enjoy your next two weeks!!! The time will fly!
To which ship is she assigned?
-
-
I was talking to Richard. He knew that it was being decommissioned and said that they will use the ship for parts to new ships.
Will Zack have any say in where he will go?.
-
-
When he gets his new orders, let us know!
-
-
Johanna, that will be hard I bet. Everyone will be sent to different ships. I guess that is all part of military life. Once you get comfortable, you get moved!

LS is logistics specialist, it is all self paced with no teacher. Not good for the hands on learner!

Welcome to the group! If you don't mind me asking, what is an LS?
