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 July 11, 2012 at 10:50am: Good morning, Tee. I am here. Happy Hump Day.

Comment by Tee-1sailor's mom on July 11, 2012 at 10:30am: Where is everybody? It's Wednesday here!

Comment by Vickyrun on July 9, 2012 at 10:12am: Tee, I saw Chrissy for short visit on the 4th. She went back to the east coast yesterday.

Comment by nvmomma on July 8, 2012 at 8:18pm: I would be glad to share how the Chilly Ties are made, they are very easy. They are filled with water storing crystals that you can find in any gardening department. I charge $5 for mine, in any of the patterns pictured below:

Comment by JudyM on July 8, 2012 at 3:58pm: NV, I would love to learn to make the neck coolers also.

Comment by Paymaster on July 8, 2012 at 2:02pm: Yeepie I get to take my goddaughter to the movies today! We are going to see Brave. It should be a fun afternoon.

NV...I would like to know how to make the neck coolers, maybe you can show us on the 28th when we get together again?

Comment by Tee-1sailor's mom on July 8, 2012 at 11:15am: I will definitely make the trip some time this summer NS.

Comment by nvmomma on July 6, 2012 at 7:21pm: Tee, sales were actually quite good this year. Most everyone waited until the last 2 days to buy. It was hot, but it has been much worse in past years. We had breezes most days, and the first part of the week was below normal temps. Nothing like the 110 degrees we have endured in the past. Plus, I made 'Chilly Ties' to sell on the side (they are the neck scarves that you soak in water and they expand), and they kept us all nice and cool :)

Comment by NevadaSierra on July 6, 2012 at 4:31pm: thanks Tee. Husband's health is improving, he has lost 20 pounds. We will know more the end of this month. I've only lost ten - why is that so hard? Right now, they are talking about her going to the Seattle Art Institute, and going in the Reverves - we will see. Should know more next week if there were any scholarships, etc.

Brianna is four. There are pictures on my face book page (Susan Kopp). Awesome things that they are able to do now. She is four and a half. I am praying that we will be able to go up for the week after her surgery. we will see. Thanks for the warning about the b&b eyes. I'll be aware.

Well, I'd love that kind of M&G. We start at North San Juan @ 8:30 <probably way too early for most>; Downieville @ 10:30 <might be easier> and Sierra City @ noon <the easiest>, but the farthest.

Check out the map - it would be a kick. Summer is the best time!

Comment by Tee-1sailor's mom on July 6, 2012 at 4:24pm: How is the hubby NS? Big Contrats to Tyr on the competition. Wonder is she could use that talent in the Navy??

Thanks to the Lord for the downgrade of surgery for Brianna. I've had surgery on the nose area and it makes your eyes black and blue. Praying for a successful surgery and quick painless recovery. How old is she, I forget?

So more time running all over the hills serving the flock? Someday I'm going to show up at one of your services. It would be a great day trip from SAC. Anyone want to go too?
