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."

Oh me too Jessica. My husband and I are huge movie buffs. I think between the two of us we have at least 100 DVDs. I haven't even counted the VHS tapes.

Great idea Michelle!

Even if we just print up a picture of our avatar ( 3x3 inch) and write in marker Navy for Mom if you can't get a templet to print.

Michelle, I am looking forward to tuesday mostly, monday I will be thinking too much, OCDing. I know all our guys are going to well... MAMMA WANTS A PHONE CALL!

I love that idea Michelle. This way we all know each other. I was thinking about wearing 943 flag tee shirt but then I was thinking how am I going to recognize everyone. Plus our ribbons have last names and we don't even know that!
Comment by MC Wife PIR9/10/10 SHIP9DIV302 on September 4, 2010 at 12:18pm
My friend Caitlin lived there. In Goose Creek which is on the outskirts of Charleston. She LOVED it. She can't wait to move back. C loves it there too.
We both want to either move to South Carolina or Seattle, Washington or Portland, Oregon. Or some town around there.
Astoria, Oregon would be sweet. That's where the Goonies was made I think. Haha!
We're big coast fans. :] But I've only seen the ocean once. Soo. I guess I'm a fan at heart. :]

Hey question for everyone... Have you all noticed on the right side of the screen there is a badge above the calendar? Since we know each other by our avatars on this site, what do you all think about printing those out to wear at the M&G? I know many of us have ribbons, but I really think it would be easier to recognize who we are talking to by seeing the same picture we associate with them now.
Comment by michellep-div303-PIR09-10-10 on September 4, 2010 at 12:16pm
You know where I want to move to? South Carolina. I've never been there, don't know anyone who lives there but have wanted to live there my whole adult life. I keep trying to talk Chris into it but he thinks it is a little hasty....
Comment by MC Wife PIR9/10/10 SHIP9DIV302 on September 4, 2010 at 12:12pm
Sounds like it! But I don't think I'd want to live there, personally. It sounds expensive! But I'm use to everything in Indiana, which is compared to a lot of other states, cheapcheapcheap! And I'm a total tight-wad. C too.
Comment by michellep-div303-PIR09-10-10 on September 4, 2010 at 12:05pm
I think so! And there is so much to do here - it's the perfect place for a vacation.
Comment by MC Wife PIR9/10/10 SHIP9DIV302 on September 4, 2010 at 12:02pm
That is so awesome. I might just take you up on that offer sometime.
I'm thinking deployment for C = vacation to California for Navy wife Emily ;]
Fair trade don't you think?
