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 Stephanie( Mrs. Davis) on April 25, 2010 at 7:20pm: The texts are the cutest. I know it seems as if no one whys I am doing this or staying with him. It is kind of hard sometime but, I know what I want and this is him.

Comment by Stephanie( Mrs. Davis) on April 25, 2010 at 7:07pm: He writes me all the inside jokes and things and it makes me want to do them but, it's not the same without him. I am sure you will but, cherrish every moment. I have learned that. I never thought I took him for granted but, after he left I realized how I took for granted the simple text messages, roses, or simply hearing "I LOVE YOU" and seeing his face. Its good to talk to people about this because here I feel like NO ONE understands

Comment by Stephanie( Mrs. Davis) on April 25, 2010 at 7:01pm: I know. I miss seeing him everyday and the little things. I told him I didn't care what we did just as long as I got to spend time with him

Comment by Stephanie( Mrs. Davis) on April 25, 2010 at 6:54pm: I know, I told him I was going to run up and bear hug him. He said he would beat me to it..haha.

Comment by Stephanie( Mrs. Davis) on April 25, 2010 at 6:46pm: Your lucky. I am still unsure when my bfs battlestations are. I happy you get your Sailor call. Good luck to all our sailors about to do their battlestations

Comment by Stephanie( Mrs. Davis) on April 25, 2010 at 6:36pm: Really, I am sorry to hear that. I get one every week and this week is the first one with no call. He said he would call this weekend and kept my phone by me at work and everything. I hope to hear from him soon and hope you do too:)

Comment by Stephanie( Mrs. Davis) on April 25, 2010 at 6:21pm: I know I cannot wait to jump on the plane and be there. At first I felt like it was going to be forever but, thinking it seemed like it flew past me. Did anyone get a phone call today?

Comment by Mo on April 25, 2010 at 4:58pm: Joanne, Let your daughter know that we are pulling for her. Poor kid sure has had a tough time at boot camp.

Comment by farkus5 on April 25, 2010 at 4:40pm: Woohoo Cannot wait !! Let's all keep praying for all the Divisions ! They have all worked so hard !
