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 nicole~a sailors girl(: on July 27, 2011 at 12:05pm: 5 hours of work left!!:))))))) thank you to all the lit candles, it means so much! No calls have come in yet-hopefully soon1

Comment by Donna-Amanda's mom on July 27, 2011 at 12:00pm: AJ, Yes that is what I said. That must be like the 4th one but not on any ship I had heard of. That is what prompted me to ask my daughter about it. More thinking about the flight crew on deck all the time. She said there is a railing(or something there) so they can't just fall off. So sad anyway you look at it.

Nicole- Congrats on your new Sailor early also. Should be receiving that call very shortly now.

Comment by AJ on July 27, 2011 at 11:53am: I knew there was one more thing! Rolla Billy! These names are hysterical and the tag lines seem endless for some. I like the other one too, Frankie Stein ..... there must be a way to reuse retired names .... but hey, this is serious derby, so maybe not ..... like football numbers ..... you may keep it for posterity ..... so you better pick of great one ...... we will be visiting your shrine in the Derby Hall of Fame! It is still wonderful to read how much you are enjoying yourself with this. :)

I think that's it .... or all I can remember ..... so ta-ta for now. Going to FB.

Comment by AJ on July 27, 2011 at 11:48am: Oh right, yup Hurley, as I understand it, all junior enlisted have to take their time cranking ..... what a nasty job. A finished his cranking the day before yesterday and I know he is thrilled to be done with that! I have no idea what he is doing now. Thinking of Dyl's though .... hoping that it is true that it is easier and better when not deployed.

Nicole ... another thing, that shirt is so adorable .... you are quite the talented young lady .... everyone will want one!

Oh man, I have to go back another page ..........

Comment by AJ on July 27, 2011 at 11:44am: Wow .... so much 'action' of all kinds here! Don't know which post to begin with! Nicole ... that call should be coming anytime now! I did light a candle last night, but wasn't blue .... so went with Navy white! An early congratulations to your new Sailor and you! Have a wonderful time at PIR and as all the rest here, I look forward to seeing your smiling faces in some photos!

Iris .... so this guy that has Haley's attention and heart ..... wow, what a tough place for you both to be in. Kudos to you for making the effort with him after such an act of stupidity on his part .... I'm with you and the rest here, there's no excuse for such behavior and of course, none of us want to see her heart broken over such a guy ...... but, geez, they have their own ways of learning things and experiencing things and feeling things ...... and oh if we could but protect them, we would ....... it is such a double-edge sword isn't is? .... to be able to forgive and trust, when there has been such hurt ...... keep us posted on your call with him and he better keep his nose clean .... 'cause you and I are headed to Hawaii .... and well, we have our means .... just sayin' ......

Hurley ..... I have to say that you must have heard us all laughing out loud about your butt and cooter story. OMG .... and then the septic tank ... and then, the new Guinness Book of World Records 'photo-finish' time .... gives photo finish a whole new meaning! I seriously hope we get to see some pictures. That is the funniest thing I've read lately!

So won-der-ful that you had Marc and Ashley visiting again. Precious time anytime it happens .... very happy for you ... and for them, that they have you!

Happy camera shopping and happy photo publishing when it happens. We'll be here to 'view ALL'! Tee Hee!

Donna .... when you posted on FB the other day, are you saying that this man overboard thing has happened several times since A arrived on her ship? I hope I misread that. No news still, which is not a good indicator of the outcome. So very, very sad and heartbreaking.

I've got to post this to go back and see what else I can't read on this page. More in a bit.

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on July 27, 2011 at 12:28am: btw thank you to all who are lighting their candles, it means the absolute world! thank you oodles!

Comment by nicole~a sailors girl(: on July 27, 2011 at 12:27am: Tomorrow...well....almost today(wednesday) is my last day of work for the week. I need to hurry this work day up- make a trip to walmart, get my hair done, and spray tan, and get to aledo to be with my 2nd family and PUPPPPYY:)
