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."

I have a Navy T-shirt and Navy baseball style cap. I also have a Sailor hat that I bought at Chris's PIR. Can't guarantee how clean it is as the buck mount on our wall has been wearing it for about 3 years LOL

Oh, that is a great question!! What can we do to stand out? I love this...we could all wear red, white, and blue and have a bunch of patiotic balloons for the table.. Any ideas ladies??? Or how about a red, white or blue flower in your hair or pinned on shirt/sweater? Or a yellow ribbon? or rwb ribbon? does everyone own a sailors hat?? I don't but it would be cute!! Or a Navy Tshirt? I have one of those... sweatshirt etc....

Ok Moms so I guess it's going to be Sat the 23rd at the Common Man, so now we just need a definate yes from whoever is going to be there, please.

So, the 23rd-24th....Lunch is great with me also...
OK, so there it is....I guess...Either day is good with me....
Comment by Lisa-Chris's Mom on October 1, 2010 at 3:43pm
I have a wedding that weekend, but the following one is good I think, but do you think we could do lunch, it's usually less expensive and easier driving, I'm not sure but for some reason my eyes are getting old haha
Comment by cheryllynn-proud mom of a sailor on October 1, 2010 at 3:37pm
Yes, Ladies, we need a date!!!!!! Are weekends the best for everyone? Saturday or Sunday afternoon...I'm flexible so don't plan around me...I can pretty much do anything. How about the weekend of the 16th & 17th?

Hi There, The Common Man in Concord is very good, we've been there quite a few times over the years! Yes, there are mostly "good apples" in BC and like AuntieJ said it's alot of adjusting to the environment their in at GL. Looking forward to our get together....is a Saturday or Sunday good for most people? Let's start there. : )
Comment by Lisa-Chris's Mom on October 1, 2010 at 3:25pm
The Common Man sounds great to me too (my sister works at one but not that one haha), now we just need a date?
Chris was in DIV 384, I purchased a Tee Shirt at PIR, I just looked at it cause I had forgotten, and laughed cause it's a pretty goofy shirt with a skull etc on the back, needless to say I haven't worn it too often LOL............Anyway he said the same about BC, but on a brighter side, he was very ill for most of BC and his fellow recruits actually helped him once in a while with his ironing etc, so there are a lot of good apples in there too:)
