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 KC'smom on August 3, 2011 at 9:22am: Whitemountain- so great meeting you and everyone else!!

Comment by HM__Mom Ruth on August 3, 2011 at 9:21am: KC, I've been talking to her sister on the FIT group. I am feeling that this is the day. Trust me, everyone will know when I know!

Comment by KC'smom on August 3, 2011 at 9:18am: HM- the young lady I was telling you all about was in FIT, so I'm sure your daughter knew her. She failed her run so many times b/c of the pain I have no idea how she finally did it. And I know your daughter can, too!!!

Comment by HM__Mom Ruth on August 3, 2011 at 8:28am: Thank you, whitemountain. She runs today, so we will take all the prayers we can get, will be lighting the blue candle at 8:00.

Comment by whitemountain on August 3, 2011 at 8:20am: What a great story KC! Thank you! It was sooo nice meeting you!

Ruth-your SR is always in my thoughts and prayers. I just returned Monday night so haven't been on but want you to know that I am thinking of her and you daily and holding you up in prayer. Can't wait to hear you tell us all that she made it! :) Hugs!

Comment by HM__Mom Ruth on August 3, 2011 at 8:15am: KC- Thanks for introducing this inspiring story to the group. Both sisters are an inspiration. As someone who has been spending time with the FIT group, I can say that they have taught me some lessons in patience.

Comment by Forrest(3/235) on August 3, 2011 at 5:58am: It was very enjoyable. I loved having alll weekend to share with him, although I definitely did not want to say good bye! That story is great. It's nice when we can all be proud and support each other.
