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."

Comment by Janie (Ship11~Div.59 Alumni) on May 1, 2011 at 11:14am: MAMA BEAR has her BABY BEAR closer to home! HOOYAH! Now we can't wait for you to see him. I am so HAPPY for ya'll, I know Nate is happier. When you see him, we want lots of pictures!

Comment by Mama Bear on May 1, 2011 at 2:39am: Jan, congrats on the job!!! You will do great...You know how to manage a family so managing will come easily to you!!! Let me know how your first week goes.

Comment by Janie (Ship11~Div.59 Alumni) on May 1, 2011 at 2:26am: Jan you will be fine, if my hubs can offer you any advice/help let me know. He is/has been in charge of cleaning the casinos at many AC casinos as well as the Sands in Bethlehem and he's now at Sugarhouse in Phila. They call it EVS ( environmental services) but in some of the casinos down here in AC he also was in charge of housekeeping. So needless to say when we stay in hotels he critiques them as well as he has me looking now! Thats great experience for you, its knowledge you can take anywhere with you. The only thing about hotels that skeeves me out is the bedspreads. They do not clean them often therefore whenever we check in somewhere the first thing I do is ripp that right off the bed! Then I check for bedbugs. lol

As for Bree she might be able to get a hotel job in one of the casinos. Maybe at the front desk or something like that. If Ct. is anything like any other state you have to get a license to work on the casino floor. I myself have to have what they call a "key license" to where they investigate EVERYTHING in my life, almost like an FBI investigation. They delve into everything, finanacial, home inspection, friends, etc.... Its unbelieveable but necessary for an upper managment job on the casino floor. We deal with a lot of money. Tell Bree I said GOOD LUCK!

Let me know how you like it!

Comment by Mama Bear on May 1, 2011 at 2:24am: Ladies, Ladies, Ladies!!!! Nathan is finally in San Diego!!!!! Yay!!!!! I thought this day would never come!!!! I have started packing just waiting for him to say we can visit. I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo HAPPY to have him in California...Can't wait tosee my baby boy....
