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 diannep on August 29, 2012 at 7:51am: Good Morning everyone!

Comment by robin on August 28, 2012 at 9:01pm: Oh ok thank you ladies very much! I was surprise there for a while to be getting letters about 3 times a weeks so its kind of been my fault for getting my hopes up and expecting to still get them, I originally just got one on thursdays bc he would send it on sundays, so fingers crossed ill get another then.. i just reached my 6 month mark of pregnancy so ky hormones and emotions are a roller coaster and I find myself worrying a lot, but thank yall very much for the advice! m

Comment by FireTeamLeaderWife aka FTLW on August 28, 2012 at 7:53pm: Sorry I haven't been on...turns out I think I actually had a reaction to some medication...edema and inflammation...hence why my back was hurting so much. I stopped taking it and am much better...just tired and getting "back to normal"...I am trying to catch up on here! I will have to tend to the 10/12 group first and then will be back to read on here.

Prayers for those in the path of the hurricane...:-(

Comment by happyfeet(ship 09/Div 288) on August 28, 2012 at 7:32pm: robin~ not yet. I usually get them on Tuesday or Wednesday...they have huge testing going on now and getting ready for, so don't be surprised if you don't hear from him/her this week. (I need to remember this myself)!

Comment by diannep on August 28, 2012 at 6:31pm: robin: Try and go on the NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS when you don't hear anything. That is the theme of bootcamp. If the letters were mailed out yesterday, they may take a couple of days to get there...so hoping you get one soon!

Comment by ellen0502 on August 28, 2012 at 4:29pm: Just to let you know, it looks like some SRs who have family in the path of the storm are being allowed to call home and check on their families. Keep your phones handy (as if I need to tell anyone that).

Stay safe!

Comment by robin on August 28, 2012 at 4:25pm: Hi ladies, has anyone recieved a letter this week from their SR in 287 this week, I usually get a couple but haven't recieved one this week and am getting a little worried:/

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on August 28, 2012 at 4:04pm: but who counting? Right rmcurtiss? :-)

Thanks, I am hoping they are all fine as well. Haven't heard anything yet today because I have been working :-)
