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 Jeff's momShip11Div210 on May 23, 2010 at 5:53pm: Got a call from Jeff today.He sounded great.He said he only has one more inspection to pass.He actually said the food was good and he wouldn't mind doing boot camp for 8 more weeks.He has made some buddies some going to Pensecola but none to his actual IT school.I think right now it sounds like he made a good decision.I am feeling much better about him and won't worry so much.

Comment by Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on May 23, 2010 at 4:11pm: Sophia & Judy- I also got a call on Friday! it was such a nice way to start the weekend. He was doing well. Told me about the shooting range, said it was fun. He too told me about the shots but did not mention if he had an pain associated with them. We drove up to Flagstaff Arizona this weekend to visit the in-laws and it has been miserable due to high winds between 30 & 50 MPH. I hope you all have a great weekend and recieve some calls.

Comment by LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on May 23, 2010 at 3:35pm: I've had to work so much the last month and into the next two weeks. It's going steady for me. Sorry If time isn't moving after next Monday it will fly by. This one time my sister wanted my youngest to come up and visit here for a week. well the week started in July and ended in August. He said No I don't want to be gone two months. lOL He was like 2nd grade. I hope that made ya chuckle.

Comment by TracyLynn on May 23, 2010 at 3:09pm: 19 days to go.. and MUCH slower!!

Comment by Jakob and Lily`s Mom on May 23, 2010 at 2:38pm: is is just me or is time moving s l o w e r.....

Comment by Kim on May 22, 2010 at 11:33pm: Tristan's Mom...I was reading through the comments and thought "how did she know my name was Kim?" then realized that it belongs to sealifedifferently! LOL.
My name is Kim, also. And I just watched the Tivo'd Grey's. Wow, it was good. It gave me something to write my son about since there isn't much happening in our sleepy town.

Comment by Charles' Mom Ship 11 Div 210 on May 22, 2010 at 11:21pm: good evening N4Ms, just dropping in to say 'hello' to everyone. I hope you all are doing well and are getting excited about the upcoming graduation date. I cannot wait. It seems as if Charles' foot is getting much better. I am hopeful that he will graduate on time along with his fellow camerads. Ya'll know what tomorrow is...????? ..Sunday......Ya'll know what that means...????.....It means that either some of us will get lucky getting a phone call, or pretty much all of us can expect some more mail next week, as the recruits will have 'off ' time to sit down and write. Monday is the beginning of week 6 , and it is my dearest hope, that all recruits continue to hang in there strong and stay focused. Good night my fellow N4Ms friends.....

Comment by Sophia on May 22, 2010 at 11:45am: I got a phone call too! He had perfect timing, 4 pm MD time, and it was my last hour of work, since I quit to stay with the baby. He sounded so much better than he had in previous phone calls. He told me about the shots too, I told him good - he won't get me sick :) He said they are receiving mail every day now, I thought it was only on Sundays, so I had been saving letters and sending them all at once, but now I'm going to send him them more often - whoops! He is very anxious to hear about things going on at home. He gave me a bunch of dates for tests and other things. I'll post them later, they are in my car!

Comment by JudyB. on May 22, 2010 at 10:20am: Good Morning Kim, Sophia...Well I got a call Friday from T he called a 1pm CA time and said that he cannot wait to be done. The series of shots given every week has not effected him until this weeks shot, he said he feels ache all over and he pulled a muscle in his left knee back about 3 weeks ago went to the doc he put T on prescribed meds, but can't seem to get the prescription filled to busy!! I said your the Dental Yoeman, and Solener is Medi Yoeman...have him take it to get filled!! I just don't want my cub in pain!!

Miss Katie was working yesterday and missed her call...she is really bummed out!! She said he sounds like ready for A school from the message he left her.
