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 JessicaB-Sailor's Sweetheart<3 on June 7, 2011 at 12:51pm: Nope, the little sister lives with her dad and isn't my biggest fan either. Oh well, I get the most letters and all the phonecalls (:

Comment by corpsmanwifeschu on June 7, 2011 at 11:52am: Have you asked him in your letters what it was he wrote down on the form letter since you can't see it? All my hubby wrote on there was "love you." There wasn't space on this like there was on his brother's to write a note.

Comment by corpsmanwifeschu on June 7, 2011 at 11:42am: It can't get here soon enough, for us or for them.

Comment by corpsmanwifeschu on June 7, 2011 at 11:41am: From a crafter on etsy. Her shop is Love My Hero.

I also have one that I won from her, she custom made a quote for me. I put the first lines to the little note that Job left in his "hubby in a box."

"You are my strength. You are my courage to carry me on."

Comment by corpsmanwifeschu on June 7, 2011 at 11:38am: It's all about what you search for...I never found last week's question by using Google. I don't think I found it at all actually.

Comment by corpsmanwifeschu on June 7, 2011 at 11:37am: You at least remembered to call it a United States Ship.

Comment by corpsmanwifeschu on June 7, 2011 at 11:36am: Today's our son's 2nd birthday...was so hoping for that picture. I was second two weeks ago, and now first with a slightly incorrect response, sigh...

Comment by JessicaB-Sailor's Sweetheart<3 on June 7, 2011 at 11:36am: oh wow. ill try that next week. thats okay, im the stupid head below you who got it completely wrong haha

Comment by corpsmanwifeschu on June 7, 2011 at 11:34am: Yeah, I'm the stupid head who forgot USS before spelling it incorrectly anyway.

I just typed in "Petty Officer Epps 2006 Ship" and I didn't even have to open the link it was right there on the search page.
