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."

My husband miss the call but she left a message that said SHE WAS A SAILOR. YEA! now I'm having a melt down. To much emotions to hold on too.
Comment by barb ( rachel's mom) on April 20, 2010 at 3:32pm
they earn flags for different areas such as academic flag and they get to carry the ones that they earned during graduation.,

Renee, I will be praying for you. The waiting is painful. So i'll be here for you.
Comment by Oneofalot on April 20, 2010 at 3:29pm
I'm sort of relieved that they all passed. Still waiting to hear from her. She might be talking to my husband. Cant get hold of him is phone goes straight to voice mail.
Comment by Janiece M-Utah on April 20, 2010 at 3:28pm

Div 165, all passed, flagged in everything except academic, and double flagged in some....
Comment by Cheryl in OK on April 20, 2010 at 3:13pm
I think I just answered two calls from my daughter in 166. The connection wasn't going through because I kept saying, "Hello, hello, hello.." and no answer. I'm on the verge of tears. Will she be able to call again?
