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 Sherblond on July 18, 2011 at 4:55pm: Hope you all get your calls soon...the anticipation is a killer. My Sailor got 4 hrs of free time yesterday...what a great day for him, he got to make calls, eat at the food court --- said he couldn't wait to "mack on some Taco Bell" and get on the computer. Was so nice seeing him communicate with his friends again....amazing how much 20 something boys/men still miss each other. PIR right around the corner ladies, then we finally get to hug our Sailors...Hang in there!

Comment by DaveMom2 on July 18, 2011 at 4:10pm: what is taking so long? I thought for sure we would hear something by now.

Comment by BoosMom on July 18, 2011 at 4:08pm: It's not even my group and I am a wreck!

Comment by Terry'saproudmom(Ship02-Div936) on July 18, 2011 at 3:25pm: KATHLEEN10: My hands are shaking and I threw up breakfast this morning...Sorry! I think some of the nervousness for me is not even knowing if they did Battle Stations last night or not. Have to wait to see if people start posting calls to know. If they didn't then they will run tonight with 233-234. Regardless my candles will be burning for all our guys tonight too!

Comment by Kathleen10 on July 18, 2011 at 3:02pm: I am so excited for you all but nausea's for my SR, 234 starts at 2000 tonight. I will be up all night praying and waiting. My husband thinks I am nuts.

Comment by DaveMom2 on July 18, 2011 at 2:50pm: I'm on pins and needles. I can't wait to hear:)

Comment by diannep on July 18, 2011 at 2:47pm: I'm a Sailor calls should be about ready to start...if for sure 936 went last night! Phones ready!

Comment by Terry'saproudmom(Ship02-Div936) on July 18, 2011 at 1:51pm: I'm now armed with both a Tide stick and Shout Wipe & Go's. ;-)

For veteran mom's so that you can tell other groups I found both at Walgreens in with the laundry detergents. I think they were about $2.59 ea

Darn guess I'll go back to Walgreen's again after we get our "Sailor" call to check out the Revlon Lipstain.

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on July 18, 2011 at 1:18pm: ...and that was SUPPOSED to be "pretty"..."pretty", you darn phone! And "with NO" not withdraw...I think I give up today on my typing ability on the phone!
