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 proudksmom on November 24, 2010 at 11:40pm: Congratulations to Div 9 and 10. So proud of all the guys and girls passing their battle stations!! We are up on Tuesday, wish it was over!!

Comment by Lou2 on November 24, 2010 at 10:45pm: For the first time in a long time, I was able to sleep last night without taking a cough suppresant and did not wake up until the alarm went off this morning. I'm guessing that I had peace that all our Sailors would come through with flying colors. I know that many, many prayers were going up for our boys and girls. Not just the ladies on this site but from many friends. I know in my heart that all the divisions will be just fine. More prayers are goint their way.

Comment by Sherri_M on November 24, 2010 at 8:38pm: I'm so so happy for all in Div 9 and Div 10!!! It's been a ride, but finally...we have sailors!! For those going next week...we'll be here going through it with you...the waiting is the killer!! Soon all our DIV will be SAILORS!!!

Also, found out Michael was in sick bay for 24 hours...all day and night Monday..got out Tuesday morn and was reunited with his div...Chief PO asked if he thought he could make it through the BS...Michael said "yes sir, I can!" and he did!!! Said he was sooooo tired..probably didn't sleep much Sunday/MOnday since he was throwing up constantly...said he was more than ready to go to bed at 8...and tomorrow was ready to eat, alot and sleep some too!
For those ladies who didn't sleep well...I'm sorry!!! I am sure I woulda been right there with you, but the meds just knocked me plum out...but on the bright side....those meds are wonderful and I feel sooooo much better now!!!!

Comment by Linda (navynucmom) on November 24, 2010 at 8:34pm: Congratulations to all you sailor moms, girlfriends, fiances, and wifes!! I knew they would pass with flying colors. I can't wait to get calls tomorrow and then my sailor call next Tuesday.
