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 davysnavywife (Groton CT) on February 24, 2011 at 10:38pm: Ashley I haven't heard anything about Kentucky....not sure where he is hearing that. Tell him to find my hubby and talk to him. Lol. ;)

Shoot!!!! Grad and go for sure??? I'm so sad!!!! That means my hunny is going fast too! Poop!!!!! Big time sad.

Girly if I may say.... when he is on a sub you won't have a choice to see him! Go with him now while you can! Later when he's deployed finish up. Time with our guys is so precious! Just my opinion Hehe. I am leaving family and the sun to move to Groton lol but it will be well worth it.

Comment by NavyMaMa23 on February 24, 2011 at 10:36pm: Hi Ladies,

I'm so glad to hear some of you got letters. I didn't receive one today so hopefully tomorrow. My daughter-in-law Amy got one, so at least one of us heard from him. YAY!!

Comment by SubWife5611 on February 24, 2011 at 10:27pm: Amy, for some reason he is saying his schooling is 7 weeks in Groton, then to Kentucky for a year? What is your husband saying? I can't find anything about Kentucky online, so I'm assuming somebody told him a bunch of bull? And I got letters:) He is a grad and go after PIR and said he'll only get 5-10 hours with us. I was sad at first but I will be seeing him so I can't complain.

I have to choose to either finish school now and move to him later, or vise versa. He's set on me finishing school later and I have no idea how to tell him I wanna finish school. It would be so good to have my Nursing license and have something to help keep me occupied on deployments!

Comment by davysnavywife (Groton CT) on February 24, 2011 at 8:00pm: I have mail waiting for me at home. I hope everyone receives something today or tomorrow. ;)

Comment by jennifer-seabee sweetheart <3 on February 24, 2011 at 6:48pm: I got one letter today <3 normally get 4 but he said they have been really busy & he hasn't had time to write much. but I'm perfectly fine with just one <3 hope everyone else got letters!!

Comment by davysnavywife (Groton CT) on February 24, 2011 at 1:49pm: Good morning N4M!

Happy 28!!!! I hope we all get letters today! ;)

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on February 24, 2011 at 9:58am: The Navy Lodge doesn't have them but the shuttles really are just a taxi, and some of those taxi's are vans. If you stay at the Navy Lodge you can call a cab/taxi company and see what they would charge. Others have done that and it worked out pretty good for them.

Comment by diannep on February 24, 2011 at 8:56am: MissingSailor. I have heard that Ramada's shuttle is free. The ones from Residence, Springhill Suites, and Courtyard are $3/pp each way...sailor returns with you for free on those.

Comment by MissingSailorD (Ship 07 Div 109) on February 23, 2011 at 9:44pm: The shuttle from Ramada Inn is free right? Too bad the Navy Lodge doesn't offer free shuttle. Wonder if I should book it now too.
