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 KC'smom on July 1, 2011 at 8:24am: Joy- how sad that she can't make the baby shower!!! Did you never mention before that you were about to be a gramma? Or did I miss this? I hope she can save her leave for when the baby arrives. That's more important anyway.

Comment by fa4airtran on July 1, 2011 at 3:16am: @sperawk He said Pelletire left it with Chief Alcantara.

Comment by Joy125 (FC Mom) on June 30, 2011 at 8:40am: I talked to Kori last night.....she was a bit annoyed because she was previously told that she would not be take leave for the 4th. Yesterday, when she moved to her new ship, they told her yes, they get a 4 day weekend and can take leave, but it's too late now to request it. Grrrrr!!!! She would have loved to come home for her sister's baby shower that we are doing on Saturday, and pool party for the 4th. So not fair!!

Comment by sperawk on June 29, 2011 at 11:08pm: Okay fa4airtran fb friended! You must be the teachers special lady. Casey told us about the reserve guy who could out pt them all. Happy to hear from you!

Comment by fa4airtran on June 29, 2011 at 10:44pm: @sperawk or friend me on here & I can send it to you in a private message.

Comment by fa4airtran on June 29, 2011 at 10:35pm: @sperawk My sailor says he is in Pensicola. He just sent me his phone number but i don't want to put it on here. Are u on FB?

Comment by fa4airtran on June 29, 2011 at 10:29pm: @sperawk I will see if my sailor can contact any of his FB friends from the Div. to find out where Pelatier is.

Comment by sperawk on June 29, 2011 at 2:49pm: My son SR Speraw graduated on the 17th from Ship 09 Div 205 and lost his raincoat. Other recruits said a SR Pelatier had his coat but we were never able to find him. Does anyone know this sailor or his family? Is there anybody at RTC that can be contacted to find out if this turned up in a lost & found. Any help would be appreciated.

Comment by Donna (Christopher's Mom) on June 29, 2011 at 7:02am: Mamacindy-he's at Naval Air Station in Pensacola.

Comment by Joy125 (FC Mom) on June 28, 2011 at 9:19pm: Tys Mom and Meryl.....same here!! Missed the meet and greet because of Chicago traffic! It took us 3 hours to go 30 miles!!! I'll bet we were suffering together.....it was so miserable I swore I would never drive in Chicago again!

Lala.....beautiful picture!

Kris.....this is always the first place I check in Navy4Moms, too!

Audrey...thanks for the update, and I enjoy hearing all the news from all the sailors in our PIR group. I hope we can all keep it up!

KC's mom.....that is crazy!! You guys need to stop that! How is your son's foot, by the way? Still making progress?

My daughter went into Chicago yesterday for part of the Navy Week celebration there. She said there were 46 sailors from GL there.......they had to wear their dress whites and for the most part, she said they just stood around. I looked online for any pictures but didn't see any of the new sailors. School still on hold......she's not real happy about that but at least she's making money, right?

My daughter said she may be able to come home for either Thanksgiving or Christmas, but that it would be taken off of her leave when they finish A school. At this rate, it will be Christmas NEXT YEAR before she finishes and by then she will have accumulated more leave, right? So I am pretty darned excited about that!
