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."

Susie you are too funny!!! I am going to TJ MAX tonight if I find Purple I will pick you up one.

Thanks Susan that might explain the long wait. My son did say he was doing battlestations Sunday night but did not say what other Div's were going.
Comment by tayway on April 19, 2010 at 4:16pm
well it's only 3:00 in chicago... still early. I'm so excited for everyone!
Comment by Ramona on April 19, 2010 at 4:12pm
Well 4:00 came and went no call. They must be waiting until most people are home from work. The suspence is killing me.
Comment by Ramona on April 19, 2010 at 4:07pm
Did you say you were buying drinks Susie? Make mine a DOUBLE!
Comment by Ramona on April 19, 2010 at 4:00pm
I hear you Susan.
I was the same way. Then I had to PEE really bad and would not go upstairs because I didn't want to miss the call. (Cell doesn't work upstairs) I finally had not choice.

Comment by Ramona on April 19, 2010 at 3:46pm

What time did they start calling last Friday?
Comment by 209mikesmom on April 19, 2010 at 3:37pm
Cheyanna, Remember when we were saying how are we going to get through 8 weeks? Now we only have 4 days. We can do this. It will be worth it. Our guys are now over the hard part of BC. Just imagine them getting ready for PIR now! That thought gets me so excited. Hang in there. Friday will be here before we know it.
Comment by Oneofalot on April 19, 2010 at 3:27pm
Cheyanna, calm down, breath deep. We will get through this together.
