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 MamaCindy (MMW TM) on May 11, 2011 at 4:35pm: I had about convinced myself that an SR with my son's hair color and BCGs might be my son. Then I realized the chin was entirely different! I really can't picture what he might look like without hair and those stylish glasses. Glad we can have some fun with it while we wait. : )

Comment by diannep on May 11, 2011 at 4:15pm: Once that head is shaved, and the uniforms slapped on them, it is hard to tell who is who! Amazing how just a "hairstyle change" can make all look so similar!

Comment by MamaCindy (MMW TM) on May 11, 2011 at 4:03pm: YAAAAY KC'smom! I'm so happy for you! we can live vicariously through you!

Comment by KC'smom on May 11, 2011 at 4:01pm: Got my letter!!! Yaaaaayyyy! Although it wasn't 4 pages long. Oh well. everytime I walk to the mailbox I say "please, please, please, please" and then today - sandwiched right between 2 Bills (of course) - there it was!!!! Yaaaay.

Comment by Sunnyb on May 11, 2011 at 2:10pm: Oh yeah Oh yeah.!! I just saw another div. 931 on the facebook pg. that got a letter too, who also sounded upbeat and happy.

*Linda.. I thought the facebook page was a little like playing "Where's Waldo" cause they all look alike.! My husband keeps asking, "did you find Waldo yet?" It is really fun looking at what they are doing, even if it may not be them.

Resting with inner peace today! You girls are the best.!

Comment by Linda on May 11, 2011 at 1:21pm: Well I checked out the facebook pics I didn't see my kid but I did learn that my son has a look alike I was screaming oh my goodness there he is!!!!
