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 209mikesmom on April 19, 2010 at 6:09pm: Susie, I agree that Peter is very tired. When we talked to Michael he told us he was falling asleep in the shower and shining his boots. They just need to sleep. The important thing is now we can tell all our friends ...........Oh, my son/daughter he/she is in the navy and stationed TBA

Comment by fl navy mom on April 19, 2010 at 6:06pm: thanks for the update Ramona. it's gonna be a long 24 hours.

Comment by Ramona on April 19, 2010 at 6:04pm: Susan ,Ben said that they were the only Div that went last night. Sorry! I think that 165 is doing BS tonight so expect a call tomorrow.

Comment by DeannaD-Bigpumpkin on April 19, 2010 at 6:03pm: Susie1215, Don't worry Mom, they are so tired after being up so long. My son didn't act as excited as I thought he would but by the time PIR he told me all about it and was very happy. he told me he even had tears when they put on their navy cap. So be excited for him and yourself. The drink will help.

Comment by maussie64 on April 19, 2010 at 6:02pm: Susie, he will be fine after a good sleep. Scarlett was not super enthusiastic either. She sounded completely worn out.

Comment by diannep on April 19, 2010 at 6:00pm: Susie: Friday will be much better. Try not to think about it. Sounds like he is just beyond exhausted.
