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 Oneofalot on April 20, 2010 at 11:23am: Ramona, thanks for the information. I really appreciate it. I will try and not watch that stupid clock. But I have to stay here on the site. I feel more in touch with you guys then anyone else.

Comment by fl navy mom on April 20, 2010 at 11:21am: thats a great idea for your sailor susie. how did you find the place in the area?

Comment by Ramona on April 20, 2010 at 11:20am: Jean and Dubbie DO NOT WATCH THE CLOCK!!! I did that yesterday and it was like watching GRASS GROW! I couldn't get of this site either.
Hang in there! Oh and do not be surprised if they do not sound excited they will EXHAUSTED!

Comment by Oneofalot on April 20, 2010 at 11:13am: They don't even get to celebrate. They have to clean the ship and then clean up themselves. I figured they would get to sleep some too.

Comment by fl navy mom on April 20, 2010 at 11:11am: why can't they let them call us when they are done, then they can celebrate after the calls. this waiting is the worst!!!

Comment by Oneofalot on April 20, 2010 at 11:06am: Dubbie, at least I'm not alone. Thanks God for that. I don't know if I could do this with out all of you guys. It would make people go crazy.

Comment by dubbie on April 20, 2010 at 11:04am: i know Jean... time has just stopped!!!! i'm about to jump out of my skin.

Comment by Ramona on April 20, 2010 at 11:02am: Thanks ladies with the updates about wht nuke program and when the Sailors are departing for A school. Ben (DIV 923) is in the Electrial Maintance part of it. I can't understand why they would send diffferent divisions going to the nuke program on different days. You would think they would all have to start school on the same day. I am really not happy about him having to leave Sat. 2:30 Am when others do not have to leave until Tuesday.

Comment by Oneofalot on April 20, 2010 at 10:59am: I think the time has stopped. I feel like I am just sitting here going crazy. I am 3 hours different then the Div. and I am going nuts waiting. I know it will be around noon our time but time has really stopped.
