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."

mks

It is nice to hear his voice, then again I wonder if he may get a little homesick hearing my voice. Which was today,2 days ago and probably within the next week for their 3 week phone call.

Has anyone heard from their SR from ship 09 div 208?
Comment by dorielee(Ship14Div313) on May 6, 2011 at 4:08pm

Awesome!!! so glad to hear that from RWG- you just made my day! I sent my son some band aides in the mail yesterday.... I wonder how long the mail takes to get the SR's once it arrives RTC?

Comment by Sunnyb on May 6, 2011 at 3:21pm
Yeah RWG..! they got their mail, your words bring comfort to us!

BTW...Ladies tell your husbands, Dads, brothers,sons,etc. to join the NavyDads site or get on here occassionally. I know men think they dont have time to get online. I guess I wouldnt have time either if I wasnt on leave from work because of knee surgery.
Comment by RWG (ship 09, div. 206) on May 6, 2011 at 2:03pm
My SR called me again today to get the security info I had to get together for him. He sounds a little tired. Says his feet still hurt because of the blisters. He said in the showers he noticed alot of the guys have blisters on their feet(toes,heels,etc.). It was kinda funny when he said that it doesnt hurt the other guys feet like it does his. I told him that they hurt too. But I doubt anyone is gonna strike up a conversation about their feet when you are undressed in front of each other. He laughed too. BTW  THEY ARE RECIEVING THEIR MAIL NOW! Have a good day everyone. All seems well there.
