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 Krystal(Trevor'swife) on June 11, 2010 at 10:10pm: My hubby graduated bootcamp this morning! We are one step closer to being together again!! See you all within 2 weeks hopefully :)

Comment by oneL04 on June 11, 2010 at 8:37pm: NY Navy Wife - Thanks! Sorry I just needed to vent earlier. Haha I'm moving up there with all my stuff so I was trying to figure out the cheapest mover and stuff. But we've figured it all out so we're good to go (ya right, that will probably change...but a girl can dream). Exactly one week and I'll be in Goose Creek! Yayy :)

Comment by Kathy on June 11, 2010 at 7:24pm: margaret nuke mom--it depends what phase of schooling he's in. If he's in A school or power school, he'll prob have weekends off..and he can come home right after he's done with school (as long as he can still make up his study hours later..if he has any)..if he's in prototype..it really depends what shift he's working..maybe you'll be lucky and catch him on one of his 4 days off :) Best advice is to ask him :)

Comment by Emily-aaronsgirl11 on June 11, 2010 at 6:50pm: I know this may seem random, but I hope to meet all you amazing ladies one day!!

Comment by Rachel (Boone's Wife, Nuke EM) on June 11, 2010 at 1:48pm: Does anyone happen to know if 68 Webster Street is a renovated duplex or not? I know it's not one of the all-new two-storey ones. Thanks!

Comment by Margaret Nuke Mom on June 11, 2010 at 11:48am: I got a surprise yesterday... my son's girlfriend bought a plane ticket to go see James next weekend. Her parents won't let her go alone, so she bought a ticket for me too! It takes me awhile to adjust to new plans, so I'm a bit in shock. But I've already planned to get some sort of souvenir (sp?) from every place that I go to visit my kids. Since my 3rd son is leaving for Marines Boot Camp this weekend, it will probably be good for me to have something to do next weekend.
One thing I'm worried about... he will have just started classes... will he have any free time to spend with us? (maybe she should have waited till we know for sure he can see people?)

Comment by oneL04 on June 11, 2010 at 7:18am: Ughhh trying to figure out the cheapest way to get me to Goose Creek is driving me INSANE! I have to vent! I hate that I dont know where we're living so I can't get furniture or even plan at all. I feel like we're going to have nothing once I get there. Such a hassle. Ah I feel better :)

Comment by Krystal(Trevor'swife) on June 9, 2010 at 3:46pm: My flight for Great Lakes leaves at 7:50 tomorrow morning!! I can't wait to see my husband and for him to meet the baby on Friday! Only 2 more weeks and I will on my way to Goose Creek :)

Comment by Roz - Jason's Mom on June 9, 2010 at 2:52pm: Casey - Can you message me the address for GC? I do have one, but if you can verify it would be great. Thanks!

Comment by Kathy on June 8, 2010 at 9:53pm: Casey--just posted a new discussion to add on to what you said :) I started typing it here..but then it got toooo long!
