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 Rhonda8881 on June 21, 2010 at 4:25pm: My sailor is now on deployment. The bad news is the sailor who is responsible for clearances did not process my son's or another sailor who has qualifed QM, so both of them cannot stand watch for QM! They were both very dissapointed that they will have to stand watch on the lower ranking stations. That also leaves them short of people who can stand watch at QM. I don't understand that kind of a slip being tolerated, but I don't know much about that either.

Gloria, I hope your son and the others get all of their belongings back since the theif has been caught.

My son said he took pictures of everything he had to leave behind and locked his closet, but we know that does not guarantee safety. Evidently all sailors are told to have renters insurance for their valuables because mine already had it. He would not have had it if he had not been told.

Gloria, I spent a day in New Orleans on my vacation also. I grew up about 45 minutes north of there and my youngest son is considering going to UNO next year. It is a beautiful city, even with the dirty areas.

Have a great week all!

Comment by Gloria P. on June 18, 2010 at 7:40pm: Hi Mary my son lives in what seems to be an apt with a roommate they both have their own bedroom and share the rest of the living quarters. He had said its the barracks thou to me thats an apt lol. Just glad he has renters insurance and yea I feel the same should be a career ender for that FTSN.

Comment by Mary, Proud Mom of Nick on June 18, 2010 at 8:18am: I don't stop by alot either as our son is deployed and I'm just not following the HI groups much while he is gone but Gloria is your son in the barracks or in an apt? Glad he has renter's insurance! What a shame that a fellow sailor did this, I suspect it will be a career ender for that FTSN!

Alabama Kim, our son is in the barracks and I don't know anyone who could be of help and rent is so expensive there. There is a facebook page called Navy Region Hawaii - wonder if you can post a note there?

TGIF - hope everyone is well.

Comment by alabama kim on June 18, 2010 at 4:52am: Hi everyone I know it has been a while since i have been on, but I was wondering if ya'll could help me out. My boyfriend in stationed on the uss la jolla and is still living on base, Im currently living with me two roommates in Honolulu. Things getting a bit rocky and Im wanting to move out. I was wondering if anyone knew of anyone needing a roommate. Thanks for all your help!

Comment by Gloria P. on June 12, 2010 at 10:19pm: Hi everyone was on Vacation in New Orleans so haven't been on for a while...I just received and email from my son he's doing great out to sea in his sub... but he said that back at his home base Hawaii his room and some others were broken into...he doesn't know if anything has been taken he will find out when he gets back...the sad thing about it is it was a former crew member on his boat that is so sad. Just glad he has renters insurance. Don't know what going to happen to this other guy who is a FTSN by the way but what is wrong is wrong.

Comment by Rhonda8881 on June 9, 2010 at 9:30pm: Yes, he is very excited and I am excited for him. He will finally get to do the job he has trained for!

Hope everyone's summer is going well!

Comment by Rhonda8881 on June 5, 2010 at 8:14pm: Yankee's Mom, my son is on a submarine, the USS Olympia. He has been with the ship for almost 3 years now. He is leaving on his first deployment in the next month or so (of course don't know the dates!)

Comment by Rhonda8881 on May 28, 2010 at 6:39pm: Sorry folks.............I meant Happy Memorial day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am a natural blonde and I guess I was having a blonde moment!
