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."

J&L Mom- prayers are your way. Remember no news is good news. Did you get a call from anyone saying he's being sent home or he didn't pass?

I'm guessing he is doing FINE! Just have to wait . SORRY!.

I was wondering today if my recruit passed his tests he had this week and then I reminded myself No one called to say otherwise.
My blue candle is lite and burning for all. God Bless us all!

Comment by LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on June 5, 2010 at 1:59pm: I think it's great that at least one of us has a photo. I too am excited about the call. I plan to have my cell phone right next to me all day at work. (we aren't supposed to but I talked to my supervisor so it will be over looked a bit.

Now things to remember while waiting for our call make a list of things you want to tell/ask0 your Sailor. BREATHE and sit during the call.

But do remember they are on a different time zone then some of us so 8am is what time in your zone? for us it's 9am here. EST. so the earliest the call would come here is after 9am. I really hope that helps folks. Now just another quick reminder BREATHE during teh call and Take a seat. :D

Hugs to all!

Comment by Joyce - NavyMom Oceana on June 5, 2010 at 12:07pm: Hi Olga, I missed your earlier post. Have been so busy at work since I came back from my out of town funeral. Just now catching up on all the posts. I'm glad you were able to see the pic of Wayne on facebook. My husband called to tell me to check it out and the emotion in his voice was phenomenal. I just couldn't believe I would be the lucky mom. I guess that makes up for no phone calls through this ordeal. Wayne told me to be waiting for his sailor call. I'm a wreck, don't know how I'm going to make it through graduation without crying like a baby. Congrats again to all the new sailors and their families.

Comment by Joyce - NavyMom Oceana on June 5, 2010 at 11:48am: Sorry Liz. I can't believe I got lucky to get this picture. There were 3 of them chosen to carry the wreath out to commemorate the battle of Midway. Not sure who the other 2 are. I was guessing they are in our ship/div. Are we the only div that participates in the other graduation?

Comment by Jeff's momShip11Div210 on June 5, 2010 at 7:27am: My son called yesterday had just come off battlestations.He said it was pretty intense and the Gas Chamber was terrible.But he got through it all and is that much closer to graduattion
