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 ConnieC on June 9, 2011 at 9:45am: @ Capri, I called my SR's RDC and asked if she would make sure my princess was tucked in tight every night, and to hold her hand and sing to her till she feel asleep! She was very accommodating.
I was on the RTC FB page looking @ the pics of the recent RDC grads and saw an old friend of mine from Okinawa, she is now an RDC! I hope she comes face to face with my SR because we have a very unique last name and she will start quizzing her. My SR said that when she gets to A school she is going to change the pronunciation from German to French, not sure how she will do that, lol. Dang I am long winded this morning, lol

Comment by ConnieC on June 9, 2011 at 9:39am: We not scared of you DP!!!! YELL ALL YOU WANT! BRING IT ON!!! :)
I grew up with 5 brothers who bullied me for the first 18 yrs of my life does that mean I have a free pass to be provocative beyond the word Porn? Yippee, let me get my Fredricks of Hollywood for BIG girls out and do some shopping. Forget trying to find me in my lime green hat, I will be the women with all the cellulite and belly fat falling in my 12 inch platform shoes. I just scared myself straight lol. Dianne, I'm just messing with you. I told my husband, last night, that she is the "Boy George" of this generation. I think she is beyond talented just can't stand to watch her.

Comment by Paula (was Capricorna) on June 9, 2011 at 9:22am: Re thunderstorms: I'm sure the RDC's sang lullabies to help the SRs get back to sleep.

Comment by lucyloves...herSailor! on June 9, 2011 at 8:59am: would have been fine with me had they stuck him in that box and mailed him home,diannep! LOL. I'm sure my SR wouldn't appreciate me saying that though! LOL.

Comment by JessicaB-Sailor's Sweetheart<3 on June 9, 2011 at 8:58am: Man, it is thunderstorning something terrible over here. Do any of you know what recruits do in really bad storms? I'm curious.

Comment by diannep on June 9, 2011 at 8:43am: Yes, ladies....my yelling at you will make the RDCs look like shirley temples!

GET those clothes OFF and into the BOX....NOW! WHAT? ARE YOU AN IDIOT????? NEED MOMMY TO HELP YOU TAKE YOUR CLOTHES OFF???? NOW!!!! OR I WILL JUST STICK YOU WITH YOUR CLOTHES ON IN THE BOX AND MAIL IT! Hmmmmphf!

Comment by diannep on June 9, 2011 at 8:40am: Comment on Lady GaGa. Yep, I know what you girls are saying. She has a wonderful voice and is quite the performer....but really!!!!....however, I heard her relay her story...her childhood was full of bullying, not fitting in (maybe we know why now?), lots of pain. Her mother was in the audience and she was dressed like Queen Elizabeth. SO did not go with her daughter, but they seemed very close. I think GaGa is saying "in your face" to all of those who bullied her and tormented her growing up. Just my take...but still...she gives new meaning to the word "outrageous!"

Comment by ConnieC on June 9, 2011 at 8:04am: Lol@ Sailorswife, I'm guessing that they don't. When you soak them it activates something that absorbs your sweat, yep with sweat, and turn it into coolness. If I was child bearing age I think I would get a cooling hat vice the booby coolers.
I was looking @ lady Gag Me this morning and I'm wondering if she use to be a he? I think she has a lot of talent but her vulgar shows are a bit over the top.

Comment by corpsmanwifeschu on June 9, 2011 at 1:54am: Those cooling bra inserts mention needing to be dipped in water to activate...do they drip? Will it be obvious that you're wearing them. A little TMI, but I just finished nursing my son, I wouldn't want to look like I'm still lactating, lol. They do look mighty tempting though.

Comment by corpsmanwifeschu on June 9, 2011 at 1:47am: Connie C, great minds think alike. I also refer to her as Lady Gag-me. Her 15 minutes are up. Have you seen some of her previous stuff before she started wearing caution tape and meat? She can actually play the piano and really sing! I would buy her CD if she was genuine and not this manufactured hype.
