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 AED's Mom (Ship 02 Div 907) on January 4, 2011 at 10:16pm: When I talked to my daughter on Sunday she said that 907 was tonight also.

That means they should have started about 13 minutes ago. Good luck to all of them to night.

congrats on all that passed.

Vinny Sorry to hear about your son, but it sounds like it will work out ok, love the bra story.

Comment by BADma on January 4, 2011 at 10:16pm: They should be "on board" now. My son told me 815 tonight.
My belly is in knots. I'm sending positive vibes....

I feel very much like I did at the beginning of BC...i'm gonna feel guilty crawling into bed tonight knowing that our SRs aren't sleeping tonight.

Comment by Jan (Ship 04 Div 802) on January 4, 2011 at 9:48pm: When my son called on Sunday, I am almost positive he said they had BS on Tuesday, so tonight is the night!

Comment by NavymomGG on January 4, 2011 at 9:07pm: If four divisions can go at a time, wouldn't the rest of them go tonight? I hope so, this waiting is so difficult. We will be on our way tomorrow so I hope I get a call and it comes after we have landed. I would hate to disturb the whole plane.. Was there an approx. time that people got calls? Congratulations to all the sailors and their loved ones...Vinnysmom, I'm sorry for the stress you have had but I really enjoyed the great laugh you gave us...Happy, Healthy and Safe travel to all..Hope to see you at the MnG...

Comment by diannep on January 4, 2011 at 8:43pm: Praying for the divisions going through tonight....I guess we don't know if 802 or 907 will be there tonight...or tomorrow night...but praying for all!

Comment by diannep on January 4, 2011 at 8:41pm: YAH Vinny's Mom! LOVE that you have now informed the RDC's where us diligent women...determined NOT to miss a call...stick our phones! HOOYAH! HAAAA! Hysterical...

Ok, on your son...so sorry that happened...but he will BE there, in uniform, and you can stare at him during the entire ceremony...maybe even sit up in the balcony near where he is? Not sure on that one but worth a try...suffice it to say that he probably will want to catch "some zzzz's" at your hotel before doing anything else. Bless his heart....

Comment by kimberli61 on January 4, 2011 at 8:38pm: Vinny's mom....You are such a inspiration! I think if I would have gotten that news, I would surely crawl under a rock! In honor of you, I WILL KEEP MY CELL PHONE AND LAND LINE TUCKED INTO my bra tonite....then for the trip, I'll keep my cell, my husband's cell, my daughter-in-law's cell, my ex-husband's cell (we are all traveling together) AND my grandbaby's toy cell strapped to my body for the duration of the trip!! Hugs for sure to you! :)

Comment by PreciousMom (Ship 12 Div 038) on January 4, 2011 at 8:35pm: Thx so much......now my stomach is twisted again..whew!!

Comment by Lydia (For B - The Sea is Ours) on January 4, 2011 at 8:27pm: Precious... Id say they are getting ready to get ready!!! They will march to the Ship around 7:30ish and begin at 8:00 as my son told me... So ... they are nervously on the count down now.
