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 joshswife(Ship11Div212)PIR06/11 on May 5, 2010 at 6:48pm: LMC~ I think I was more scared of it! It just stood on top of my mail and looked at me, lol. It must have known I was going to check my mail box no matter what. So I closed the lid and reopned it and he moved just enough that I was brave enough to reach in and pull my BILLS out. I got to talk to my husband last weekend so I'm good until the Mail man decided to bring me something.

Comment by ses_monroe on May 5, 2010 at 5:49pm: oh just read it. thats wonderful. so happy for you. i'm hoping i'll maybe get a call sunday, but of course i hope he calls his mother first!

Comment by Tess (Ship 11, Div. 210) on May 5, 2010 at 5:41pm: Sesommer: Oh yeah, my mood is great! See my last blog/entry. Got a call wonderful call from my son today. I don't want anyone to feel bad about not getting a call or letter yet though. I know for sure that we will each get our turn. Hang in there everyone.

Comment by Sealifedifferently-ship11/Div209 on May 5, 2010 at 5:25pm: I agree and am happy for all of you that recieved letters and/or phone calls. since I got the 1st one on Monday I am not looking for another one this week, but will be really surprised and happy if I do get one. My sone told me when I spoke to him on sunday that he had written another one so who knows...

All the recruits are going to have some struggles but we are so proud of every one of them. Happy for you Sesommer! And Olga, I am so glad you got your letter. You must be so relieved. It's all gonna be okay :)

Comment by ses_monroe on May 5, 2010 at 5:01pm: i got my first REAL letter today. i bawled my eyes out standing at the mailbox i didn't even wait to get inside. i stood right there and read it. it was . i don't think i could have asked for anything better. i has made my day, and the days to come i'm sure. i hope everyone received theirs as well. he sounded like he was doing good... besides a bit frustrated with some people in his division. but i'm sure it is going to take a little time for everyone to work together and get along. crossing my fingers that happens soon.. i need some phone calls. :)

I got a a letter today. actually it was two in one. He told that he can out run his RDC and also that they haven't learned his name yet so he is doing good that way. :D
He says it's going well considering everything.
