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 LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on June 9, 2010 at 10:12pm: You have to use all CAPS when you input the word. Call his recruiter ASAP and tell him you can't get the pass printed.

Empty Nester- Send em a message with what size you wear and maybe I have something you can borrow. Or Enjoy your shopping trip in Chicago. :D

Comment by haynesbball03 ship11 div 214 on June 9, 2010 at 10:11pm: Shirley my son is also in Div 214, he has said they have been working hard to stay at the top. I'm sorry we wont meet tomorrow but hopefully on Friday. Travel safe and I have not heard from my sailor either. But I'm staying positive that no news is good news.

Comment by DeannaD-Bigpumpkin on June 9, 2010 at 9:12pm: So excited for you all. Have a great time at the M&G and PIR. Just wait until that big door openes and those Sailors come marching out. It was my son grad. but my 15 ear old daughter and I thought the young ladies look so nice in their uniforms.

Shirley, I am sure you would have got a call if everything isn't good. Like we all learn during the first couple of months. No call is good. I got to the point if my son called I would ask whats wrong:)

Comment by Shirley on June 9, 2010 at 9:05pm: Thank you all for your kind words and especially your prayers. My son is in Ship 11, Div 214. I want to see him so bad, I don't think I could wait another week! Theresa, I hope to meet you when we get there. We probably won't make it to the M & G, since we wont get in til after 10pm. We are staying at the Days Inn in Libertyville.

Comment by JudyB. on June 9, 2010 at 8:25pm: Alright!! Great news emptynester, can't wait to meet in person. Are you staying at the Ramada Inn?!

Comment by Kim on June 9, 2010 at 7:40pm: Hi everyone! Arrived in Chicago and it is clear sky's and 82 degrees! The airlines lost my luggage sooooo, we will see if they find it!

Tristan's Mom, I arrived at the same time you will and it seemed the traffic was going toward the city and not North. Lanes were clear and speedy!

Comment by LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on June 9, 2010 at 6:31pm: Chicago driving can take a more then waht we expect. everyone just get there safe.
