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."

aww I hope you feel better soon!  I always burn a candle when I miss my SR.  There is one currently burning upstairs because my family has been missing him a lot today.

Anyone got a kid in ship 11 Div. 203? I just talked to my son and he explained that for hygiene and sleeping div. 203 men combine with 204 men. Same with the women. 204 goes to 203. who knew.  My boy's division was allowed a 30 minute call home but they had a few minutes taken away while marching to the phone place. Nice. He said they apparently weren't marching good enough. hahaaha.
