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."

Ship 02, Div 911 -- Roll Call!!! ;o)

Hello All and a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! I hadn't seen a group formed yet for our ship, so I thought I would start one (Ship 02, Div 911 - USS Reuben James (PIR Feb 4, 2011)) so we all can be in touch! We have a special connection with band, choir, and drill team!  It will be great to share our experiences, stories and plans to meet up for PIR in Feb!  I'm a new Navy mom, and missing my daughter greatly right about now (as I am sure we all are missing our loved ones!), but am so very proud.  Let's chat!

Hey Doreen!  Let's all pray for clear weather that week!  ;o)  I just booked mine and my son's flights over this past weekend ... the only airport I did not want a connection through was Atlanta ... guess which one I got?!  And it was that airport that was closed due to weather yesterday morning! Oy!  Had me worrying just a bit, but let's just say the "freeze" happened this week to clear the way for us in Feb! ;o)
