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."

My son just got selected for the E2 as an SNA. Anyone out there who has a naval aviator flying the E2?

HeloMOM2016-Your DS has been counseled by his senior staff and has decided to redesignate? 

Comment by HeloMOM2016 on December 15, 2019 at 5:14pm

Hi all,

I need some words of support...my DS didnt pass his DH board for his HAC board....he has decided based on the options he has volunteered to redesignate. He has worked to hard to earn his wings and he didnt want to loose them. Any one else have experience with this or know anyone??

He is hoping to join the CEC community (Civil Engineering) he has a CE degree from PSU and already passed his FE exam. 

Thanks Gina

Fantastic news about your DS, Suzie. I imagine your son is excited to get back into the game. 

Comment by Allison on December 15, 2019 at 9:28am

Suzie -So glad to hear your DS is back to good health and pursuing his dream!

Comment by NFAO on December 15, 2019 at 7:09am

Suzie - great news for your DS; our DS is definitely enjoying this 'instructor' role and was happy to hear that your DS will have similar opportunities.

Happy Holidays!

Thank God for healing your son Suzie and for the opportunity for him to continue in service to our country.  My DS will be the lead pilot for the fly-over of the NFL game tomorrow in Charlotte, our hometown Seahawks vs. Panthers.  Sure wish I could be there to see it! Peace and God's blessings to you all.

Comment by Chris on December 14, 2019 at 6:09pm

@Suzie  I wish there was a like button on here.  Great news.  As you all may have heard, the three sailors killed in Pensacola were posthumously awarded their Wings Of Gold.  Now back to the Army/Navy game...three years in a row is too much.  Go Navy!

Comment by CheriH on December 14, 2019 at 10:58am

So excited for you and your DS, Suzie!  What a detour that has been. But surely the Lord has used it to grow him and his faith. Our DS did TOPGUN this past summer.  It was challenging and demanding, but I don't think he's ever been more excited. Congrats and best wishes for 2020!

Comment by Allison on October 19, 2019 at 8:11am

My DS recently received his wings of gold and is scheduled to move to San Diego soon to begin training on "Romeos," MH-60R Seahawks -- not sure I said that right but I will learn  :-)  He is trying to figure out the housing market there and where to move. Does any one have any suggestions? Obviously he doesn't want to be toooo far from the base.
