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 Dyl's Mom 943 on September 15, 2010 at 8:14pm: Hi GJ's Mom! You can try to call Poseidon (they did the tshirts) and see if you can order a hoodie. Their number is 972-347-6655. Did you all get your car started ok on Sunday night? I hope everything else went ok!

AJ, I used to live in Littleton so I was just wondering where in Colo you were. So I guess you must be a CU fan?! lol!

Good luck Mrs. B on the baby! We're all thinking and praying for his safe arrival!!

Comment by gjsmomShip6div943 on September 15, 2010 at 5:06pm: anyone know if we can still get the hoodies for 943 division. GJ got the t-shirt for his family, but I would really like to have the hoodie. He was awake tues at 2 am to head to a school. 5 hour layover in chicago then to atlanta then to Mississippi. Have not talked to him. Congratulations again to all the Sailors and families. Friday was one of the proudest days of my life. It was such a blessing to meet the families and the sailors. The whole day was such a rush. I know I need to start thinking MILITARY and not civilian anymore. I just dont think sometimes. It is such a change and some things I just do not know. Lots of hugs and kisses to D's mom from 439 and Kellie! XOXO and all others I met at the M&G

Comment by hurleyl8dyShip6Div943PIR9/10/10 on September 15, 2010 at 4:56pm: So happy for you Mrs B, soon you will have a little sailor!

Iris, I hope you are feeling well, your daughter is beautiful!

All the pictures here are great. So happy to have been a part of this. I just mailed M's thing to him today. Saturday is his Birthday so I sent 2 dvd's. I can't wait for him to get his cell phone already! I overnighted it with his computer. 80 bucks, not bad!

Comment by michellep-div303-PIR09-10-10 on September 15, 2010 at 2:53pm: My littlest ones say they are going Navy - Luke says he's driving the big Navy truck and Sam says he's flying the Navy helicopter. So, you know, I'll be back in 14 years or so...

Comment by michigan mom on September 15, 2010 at 2:31pm: Hey all- do any of you have sailors in Corpsman A school? Do you have any idea what to expect now? Any info greatly appreciated! My son called last night and said he was settled in, but wouldn't actually be starting school for a couple of weeks- anybody else have the same?
