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 Vickyrun on April 16, 2012 at 10:19am: Good morning. Soon and very soon she will be home. I am being so good not posting the date online.

Spring, Didn't we say it would be amazing!?! Yes, we did. We need more details then that, sweetie. Where did you go to eat after PIR? Did you take her shopping? Did you go into Chicago? And we need some pics please.

Welcome back Alaina, I hope your Dad is ok.

Comment by CArol on April 16, 2012 at 12:29am: I loved PIR too! Glad you had a memorable trip, spring :)

Comment by spring932 on April 15, 2012 at 10:17pm: Rachael... so glad to hear the baby is doing better.

I just got back from PIR today.... IT WAS AMAZING!!! I was so glad I got to be there. She is in Pensacola now. I love the fact that she has her phone and can call. I am exhausted but I would do it all over again in a heartbeat!

Comment by Paymaster on April 15, 2012 at 10:11am: Monica.....I didn't know that. Wow, for the "A" list crowd, that definately leaves me out becaise I think I am on the "C" list:)

Comment by Paymaster on April 13, 2012 at 9:20am: Rachael....So relieved to hear Ryan is making improvements.

Please keep us posted on his progress.

Comment by Navy Mom x3 on April 12, 2012 at 6:50pm: Ryan is off of the oxygen and his mama is finally with him. I feel so much better knowing that she can be there with her son. So far the EEG and the EKG were both fine and the breathing was the biggest hurdle. Now that the oxygen has been turned off, I don't know what's next. Hopefully, he's unhooked from some of the wires so Whitney can hold him.

Comment by Paymaster on April 12, 2012 at 6:04pm: Rachael....Any update on little Ryan?

Comment by Navy Mom x3 on April 11, 2012 at 1:27pm: Pay... I'm good. My husband and I are both here watching Ryan. They don't want us to touch him since he seems to get agitated so that's killing me. We'll probably drive back over to Jackson after the doc visits so we can give Whitney an update. Then we can come back here with more breast milk.
