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 d o on January 31, 2011 at 10:44pm: Sondra, THAT'S A GOOD LOOKING SAILOR! What did you do on the cruise? Was it different than you thought?

Comment by AJ on January 31, 2011 at 9:14pm: Yum - chicken and noodles ..... I want some! I wonder if I can catch a plane to Oregon for breakfast and then Iowa for dinner?

Comment by AJ on January 31, 2011 at 8:29pm: Sondra - that picture is just awesome .... you all look so happy together .... I bet it was a fun, fun, fun weekend.

Maybe, just maybe we'll hear from Iris in the morning .... Haley may want to sleep in, giving Iris a minute or two here .... I wonder what she'll make for breakfast? Wonder if she has room for 6 or 8 more of us ......

Comment by sondra_ship09div303 on January 31, 2011 at 8:15pm: oldest done the mohawk night before we left. he got several comments and looks. LOL

Comment by sondra_ship09div303 on January 31, 2011 at 8:13pm: it was a great visit and probably would fly to visit again had both boys only one missing is my daughter but had fun with the boys anyway. the oldest says he is going back when they return from deployment

Comment by LynB on January 31, 2011 at 8:11pm: Does anyone think we'll hear from Iris anytime soon? :)

I love that photo Sondra - because yes, you CAN tell the Navy guy. They are the ones that look fit and well groomed! I'm still delighted when I see my son on Skype - he just looks good.

Comment by sondra_ship09div303 on January 31, 2011 at 6:47pm: you know which one is Navy LOL

Comment by AJ on January 31, 2011 at 6:03pm: Sondra! Yes, we've been anxiously awaiting your news. Please, oh please, oh please, if you are up to it .... share more! We want to know everything! Ugh for getting yelled at for taking pictures on base .... they are kind of funky about that. I'm totally with d o .... get to the nitty gritty girl!

Bummer that you didn't like the flying part ..... sorry about that.

Comment by d o on January 31, 2011 at 5:35pm: Sondra...We need lots more details than that! How did you do flying? What was it like out there? You went on a cruise, tell us about it. Was your sailor weird or engaging? Get to the nitty gritty.

AJ-I was thinking if she put a dixie cup and a collar on that thing she might not even notice her boy was in SD. Good gag!
