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 Sophia on May 18, 2010 at 7:30pm: Your test made me cry just thinking about it!! Darn pregnancy hormones! I have my fingers crossed for mail tomorrow!

Comment by Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on May 18, 2010 at 2:16pm: LMC- I like the sound of the test below. I hope that we all recieve that call in a few weeks.

Comment by LMC -mom of 2 Sailors! on May 18, 2010 at 1:57pm: Well hello all!
I've been busy with getting things ready for my middle son's football season. Are you ready for some football?!??! Here is Cleveland Basketball season just ended.

Anyway I thought I would toss this one out to all and see what comes to your mine first.

Ring Jingle Ring (phone)
Us- "Hello"
"I'm a SAILOR!" -our recruit's voice
Now, this is just a test and only a test for the next 3 weeks please prepare yourself for the call. It's coming and it's coming sooner each day.

Good Bless every recruit no matter what division or PIR date.

Comment by Focusing on the Future on May 18, 2010 at 12:34am: This is week 5 ladies! Officially 1/2 thru and on the home stretch!!

Comment by Tess (Ship 11, Div. 210) on May 18, 2010 at 12:00am: Charles Mom, you're English is perfect and your strength is coming through loud and clear.. I'll say a prayer for your son tonight. Any of us can get a call at any time to let us know that our recruit will have to stay a little longer. Anything can happen. So, I think that I speak for everyone when I say that we are all so proud of your son and that when he graduates is not as important as the fact that he is setting an wonderful example for others his age and you are a role model for all moms in your courage and love for your son. Hang in there. We are all in this together. And someone is watching over your boy. He will be okay!,

Comment by WendyG on May 17, 2010 at 10:32pm: josh's wife, I am not sure, but I think it is week 5. If you count backwards from there PIR date, that is what I come up with anyway.

Comment by Charles' Mom Ship 11 Div 210 on May 17, 2010 at 10:24pm: Good evening Tess, I want to thank you for your uplifting words of incouragement. I am so unease about Charles and his foot. He is worried not being able to graduate on time, but he also knows that he needs to take care of himself. My daughter read to me the letter, that he wrote to her. In it, he sounds much more dramatic about his foot then in the letter, that he wrote to me. I know he doesn't want to worry me, but I really need to know how he is doing.
I pray that he will come out alright. Charles is not quite as tall as Alex. He stands at 6'3", and has german genes, I am a german, born and raised. My English is not perfect, so I apologize for any spelling errors. I will keep everyone in my prayers and hope that we all be blessed with mail this week..........

Comment by Tess (Ship 11, Div. 210) on May 17, 2010 at 9:00pm: Hi Tristan's Mom: Alex is 6'6 and thin. Plus big boots = the letter "L" :)
He's in division 210.
He's got the Nordic/Viking genes too. German, Norwegian and Greek! I haven't heard anything for a while but I'm counting using my airline tickets on June 10th! Hope all is well for all of them!

Comment by JudyB. on May 17, 2010 at 8:30pm: Good Evening Moms - Tess how tall is Alex? Tristan is 6'4'' German through and through...

Comment by joshswife(Ship11Div212)PIR06/11 on May 17, 2010 at 5:57pm: Is this considered week 4 or week 5 when I'm looking at what they are doing for the week?
