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 fa4airtran on July 27, 2011 at 11:15pm: Bravo Zulu KC's Mom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment by KC'smom on July 27, 2011 at 6:18pm: Our ordeal is finally over and my son is a U.S. Sailor!!! He did it. Thanks everybody for being so supportive to me over all these months!!!!!! he finished his run with a minute and 15 sec. to spare!!!

Comment by KC'smom on July 27, 2011 at 12:48am: Great Picture Audrey!!!! I just now saw it. I didn't know we have to wait so long. I can't wait!!!

Comment by fa4airtran on July 26, 2011 at 10:38pm: @KCsmom so happy for you both. You know he will push thru this like a breeze cause he already did the hard part. My prayers are with him though.

I feel so bad for that poor girl. It really hurts when u want something so badly & u don't get it. I agree with the others - not God's will but it may take her awhile to see it.

Comment by KC'smom on July 26, 2011 at 9:51pm: Battlestations begin tonight in 10minutes for 'KC'. I got all exited at 8pm but then realized I'm on Eastern Time!! Oh boy!! God, I hope I get my call tomorrow!!!

Comment by MamaCindy (MMW TM) on July 26, 2011 at 9:26pm: Can't wait for your son to get through Battle Stations, KC'sMom! It's has been such a joy and privilege to root him on and "stand" with you through both your injuries. I just can't tell you how happy I am for you both. It brings all the joy of the week of PIR back to me - such a wonderful time for our family. I, too, like Pianomom and you are so sad for this young woman who has tried so hard to recover. Continuing to pray for God's will for her life. So many times we don't understand why He leads us down the paths we travel, but they are never an accident.
Can't wait for you to get the "I'm a Sailor" call!!!!

Comment by pianomom1 (ship 11/div 203) on July 26, 2011 at 7:54pm: @KC'smom--are you kidding me? he has BS on friday? unreal...please keep us updated as to his status. so thankful to our healing God for helping him.

and the same God has the future of that precious girl who did not pass her run in His Hands too. It is not an accident, even though i know she is devastated. He has a plan for her--maybe it will be the navy, maybe not.

i don't know how we can keep up with her, but i would like to.

thanks, KC'smom

Comment by Jessicasmom on July 26, 2011 at 5:21pm: well hello!!! I think the last time i logged on wa 6-17! wow i just read through an entire book of updates lol!!! My daughter is in pennsacola at A school. I am happy that she is recovering from her culture shock from boot camp! She is getting back to normal little by little. Her hubby has moved down to FL to be near her and she has overnight liberty so she can stay at the apt that they rented.

KC'S mom- It has been a long time coming for your soon to be sailor, but what determination and will power to just blaze through his final run!!! If anyone can do this I know he can!!!
