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."

I know you are waiting on those very exciting phone calls but I wanted to give you more advice lol. If you are taking pics with a digital camera at PIR use the extra time when you get there to take some practice shots so that you can get the settings right for that lighting. You will be glad you did :-) Your pictures will come out much better.

@ exxie - are you still breathing???? ;-) I haven't been nervous, but since the clock hit 2 PM I'm starting to sweat! crazy....
Comment by Northwest Annie on February 15, 2011 at 2:50pm
I was in some of your shoes waiting yesterday for my phone call so I know how you guys feel!! I had my phone in a belt pack thing until I got my call. Mine came at noon PST so 2:00 in Great Lakes. What a relief. I want to share what I did so maybe some of you would like to do it too/ Last night I went out and bought myself a necklace with an anchor on it as my momento of a mom surviving bootcamp! I'm loving wearing it today. I just went to an inexpensive accessory/jewelry place and found a necklace with an anchor that was OK but found some earrings I loved and took one apart and put it on a chain. It would be fun to find a nicer one at some point but it's really cute, didn't break the bank and makes me feel connected to my kiddo!

My emotions are running so high today...can't wait to see my son on Friday.  Tears fill up just thinking about it!!!! 

Comment by randy'smom on February 15, 2011 at 1:52pm

navymom 74: If you are in Tx, you would be in the Central Time Zone, same as Great Lakes. So..if he said he would call at 5:00, it will be the same time where you are. I am going to be sitting with the phone in hand from this moment, until he calls!!! I am so excited right now, I am having a hard time sitting still!!!!! My little Yorkie keeps following me around looking at me like, "Gee mom, what's the problem" Ha Ha!! Please post as soon as you hear anything, I will do the same. 

Yes, when he calls I will ask about the entire division!! I have it written down so I don't forget.
