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 Emily-aaronsgirl11 on July 18, 2010 at 7:14pm: Barn Godess- Your posts make me laugh :) I'm 17 and my boyfriend is 21. We're both itching to get married. I've gotten so used to all the young spouses (couples) that I can't imagine it being any other way! I'm sure your son will find the perfect girl when he's ready. :)

Comment by oneL04 on July 18, 2010 at 6:31pm: Yah I'm about to turn 24 and my husband is about to turn 25 and we are "old" compared to our neighbors!

Thanks for the job tips - I went to Fleet and Family first and my dad told me about usajobs.com but there wasnt anything on there that i qualify for (aka not previously in the military!)

Comment by Kathy on July 18, 2010 at 12:05pm: Barn Goddess--the ages of the married people on base (that I've heard of)--range from about 16-26...The youngest married couple I knew were both early 18..and the OLDEST person I've met (in the 2 years i've been here) is 24. Most married couples, I'd say..are around 19-21

Comment by amanda on July 17, 2010 at 3:58pm: onel04 have you checked usajobs.com? there might be jobs on base?

Comment by oneL04 on July 17, 2010 at 3:53pm: does anybody know anywhere that's hiring for a full time position?! im desperate and ill do anything! im going stir crazy and my husband wants to kill me lol :(

Comment by amanda on July 15, 2010 at 10:00pm: momof5, is the Comfort Inn on Northforest drive? or something like that? a couple miles from base?

If so, it's a great hotel. really nice inside, the staff is great, and breakfast is good.

Comment by momof5 (Ship 04 Div 192) on July 15, 2010 at 9:45pm: All packed and ready to go... did get a room finally...at the Comfort Inn. It was a little expensive, a lot more than the suite we booked for BC in Chicago, but it looks nice and has a beautiful pool.... :-) Rob might have his chit approved for the weekend which would be fantastic since his birthday is Saturday..a whopping 21. He just phased up so he's ecstatic.. beer all around..lol Well thanks for all the advice. Got to go hit the pillow so I can get up at 1 am and start the 12 hour drive down.... everyone have a great weekend...

Comment by SumiK0125 (wife of a Nuke MM) on July 15, 2010 at 8:02pm: I went to a facial thing at trishas and it was so nice.... my face feels so good...lol... excited for the teddybear picnic!!

Comment by Nicole loves Sean (EM-N (SS)) on July 15, 2010 at 11:36am: I am Charleston bound in the morning!!! first time I will see my sailor since PIR in April!!! I can't wait :)
