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 LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on June 19, 2010 at 11:56am: I know the Greater Cleveland Council scout shop sells rings. I'm not sure about what you are looking for exactly. So many rings out there. Walmart also school type rings. (which i was surprised at) not sure if they have what you're looking for. His ring might just need to go to a jeweler and be cleaned and rounded again. My hubby's rings get to that point and they most often can repair them. Just a thought.

Comment by Christine-OS2 proud mom on June 18, 2010 at 11:06pm: Kat, have you looked online on the BSA website? I think they have the rings in the gear catalog, but I don't know if they look like the high school class rings or not. That might be one place to start looking. Do you have a picture of it before he started wearing it? Perhaps a custome jeweler could help make a new one. Did you order the ring from your local scout shop? Maybe they can help there or point you in the right direction. Or maybe even google, everything is on google. But will keep my eyes open and let you know if I find anything. :-)

Comment by Christine-OS2 proud mom on June 9, 2010 at 10:19pm: A wonderful mile stone in Ian's life....birth, school promotions, high school graduation, Eagle Scout Court of Honor, PIR, next is.......congratulations to Ian and to you and your family Liz. Ian knows that without the love and support from family and friends it could have been hard to get through. So proud of him! BOO YAH!
