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 Rob's Mom Ship 11 Div 113 on March 13, 2010 at 5:05pm: Hi All,
Glad to hear that everyone is doing well. Most have cell phones and laptops now and it is awesome to communicate at any time with our Sailors. My son in still in the Great Lakes in an On the Job Training program. I have talked to him several times over the last couple of day and he sounds happy. I have posted about 40 pictures to my site of graduation. Such an awesome experience. Have a great weekend!

Comment by Lisa S. Harper on March 13, 2010 at 2:58pm: Hi Nancy! I'm glad Chris is doing good! Vicktoria is doing good too! She had liberty yesterday and duty all day today! I kept asking Vicktoria to find Chris the other day (Wednesday) to tell him to call you, but she kept saying "Mom, we don't know first names, I'm not sure who he is!" She's a pain! lol! I've heard from her constantly because I shipped her phone to her on Wednesday with overnight mail! I'm wondering when she gets her work done! lol! They sound so happy and I have such peace in my heart now!

Comment by Nancy69 on March 13, 2010 at 2:48pm: I am in the process of getting Chris a laptop...and a cell phone..LOL I do miss writing him those letters ...BUT I am thankful to talk to him almost daily. He has liberty today...his friends have opposite duty day - he had duty tomorrow...they have it today..LOL...so he said he was going to the Loft and maybe to the movie theatre on base....One more week and then his school starts..

Comment by siscarrie on March 13, 2010 at 10:13am: Glad everyone is doing good. It is alot quieter here. Bradley is still waiting in GL. But at least he has his phone. He gets to call in the evening mostly. It does feel funny not sending all those letters, I kinda miss it.LOL.

Comment by Nona on March 11, 2010 at 10:58pm: Tori, yes, tell him to stay put! Pensacola is an awesome town! We have SO much history here (if he's into that). History onbase too! Tell him to the fort on base (dates back to the spanish american war) and look across the intercoastal waterway (toward the ulf of Mexico). He will see another fort (Fort Pickens). The same age as Ft. Barrancass on base. This is where they held Geronimo! They took him by boat to the island (what is now Pensacola Beach) to the fort. They knew he couldn't escape because he had seen dolphins on the boat trip! I don't know if he was afraid of dolphins or what the Indian connections to them were. He also needs to stay for SPRING BREAK nad GIRLS with barely anything on! LOL!!!!!!! Tell him to hang out at Pensacola Beach as much as possible! After all, he's a guy and it's a DREAM COME TRUE!!!!!!! LOL!!!

Comment by Nancy69 on March 11, 2010 at 10:23pm: I am just so happy for Chris! It was terrific seeing him and I am so relieved that I will be able to talk to him and email with him regularly now!! AND I am happy that he is excited about things!!

Comment by Nancy69 on March 11, 2010 at 10:08pm: Chris just called.Said he has one roommate who has already finished A school and is waiting for C school. Sounded good... got to send him a cell phone!! He said he as one week of "in doc" - then a week on hold...and then he starts school!!
