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 firemansmom(S7/DIV357) on September 28, 2010 at 8:49pm: Navymomx2!!! I cant believe the neighbor didnt bring it sooner! OMGoodness!!! Is he aware we almost made a trip to GL to find that boy?? lol!! So happy it got to you finally!

Comment by oneoftheballs(Ship7/Div363/) on September 28, 2010 at 7:35pm: Lynne, I found it :)

Comment by Mom(Div363-PIR11/5) on September 28, 2010 at 4:23pm: I'm sending cartoons and clippings about Jon Stewart. But nothing remotely political in the news. Our family, including our son, always watches the news and has political discussions but I figure nothing remotely controversial now.

Comment by Brooklyn on September 28, 2010 at 3:32pm: We're no longer at the bottom of the list on the RTC website for Upcoming Graduations!! Only 6 more Fridays!

Comment by iowanavygf (s7,Div355,PIR11/5) on September 28, 2010 at 1:19pm: I haven't heard anything since Saturday.. sooo frustrating!! He has his appt with the doc on Thurs so im praying his civilian records will be faxed to the navy by that time so we will be able to have more of an idea what is going on! He wasn't dealing with the therapy well, he's getting it everyday.. says its too painful. Hopefully tomorrows letter will tell more!

Comment by Heidi (SHIP02,DIV951,PIR11/5) on September 28, 2010 at 12:11pm: I'm so happy some of you received letters that didn't in the past. I am waiting for Wed too! When my daughter did write she asked for pictures. She said not to send musical cards or food, etc. So I sent photos in a few of the letters I wrote. I sure hope they are not going to cause her greif. :(

Comment by Robin(Corpsman-DA Mom) on September 28, 2010 at 11:35am: Ok...so I sent a $20 bill in my last letter. Do you think he will get it? Ya'll were talking about the NEX and I wanted him to have extra cash just in case. I also sent another phone card. Hope he gets both of them!

Comment by Laura (Ship 7 Div 355 PIR 11/5) on September 28, 2010 at 11:17am: Iowa, was your bf able to call you again?
